According to Russia’s TASS news agency, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated on Saturday that Armenia and Azerbaijan had reached a consensus on the fundamentals of a peace treaty.

The two nations have been at war for many years, mainly over the autonomous territory of Nagorno-Karabakh in Azerbaijan, which was retaken by Baku’s forces in September and caused a large-scale emigration of ethnic Armenians.

But Pashinyan said there had been some progress in talks over a peace treaty even though he was cited as saying that the two countries still often struggled to agree on some things.
