Will Peace be Possible on the Eve of COP29? – Umud Mirzayev's Commentary

Politics 17:20 07.06.2024

 As the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29) approaches, there are growing claims that a historic peace treaty between Azerbaijan and Armenia may be signed in Baku. According to authoritative Russian publications, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan is expected to attend COP29 in Baku this November, and the agreement could be finalized during this visit. This speculation has also gained traction in Armenia.

Umud Mirzayev, president of the International Eurasia Press Fund (IEPF), commented on the matter to Ednews, expressing optimism about the conflict's resolution. He stated, "This conflict should end with fundamental peace. There is no conflict that does not end completely."

U.Mirzayev pointed to Armenia's role in the conflict, citing the occupation and destruction of 20% of Azerbaijani lands. He recalled the 2020 ceasefire agreement that followed 44 days of war and noted the significance of the September 19-20, 2023, agreement.

Highlighting recent progress, Mr. Mirzayev mentioned the return of four villages in the Gazakh region of Azerbaijan—Baganis Ayrym, Aşagi Eskipara, Kheyrimli, and Gyzilhacılı—as a positive step towards reconciliation. He believes that continued resolution of outstanding issues could make peace achievable by COP29, allowing the two nations to present their reconciliation to the international community.

"The conclusion of the peace agreement in Baku can be quite realistic," Mr. Mirzayev said. "Baku's regional and international importance is increasing not only in economic and political terms but across all spheres of development."

As COP29 draws near, the world watches closely, hopeful that this pivotal moment may mark the dawn of lasting peace between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
