Tashiev, calling it "a historic day," revealed that several documents were prepared for the leaders to sign, including agreements on state borders, energy facilities, water resources, and cross-border road use.
Yatimov noted that implementing the agreement would "put an end to a century-old dispute between the two brotherly republics."
The documents now require approval from both parliaments and presidential signatures.
