Peace Treaty with Azerbaijan Could End EU Observer Mission, Says Armenian MP

On September 4, Sargis Khandanyan, the head of the Armenian Parliamentary Committee on Foreign Relations, stated that the need for the EU observer mission in Armenia may disappear if a peace treaty is signed with Azerbaijan.
Khandanyan explained that the EU observers are currently stationed on the Armenian side of the border, and Armenia decides to determine the duration and personnel required for the mission. "When a peace treaty is concluded, the border demarcation process is completed, and regional peace is established, it may be logical that there is no need for monitoring. However, at the moment, such an issue is naturally not being discussed," he noted.
Addressing the question of where and under whose auspices the peace treaty might be signed, Khandanyan responded that various options are being considered. "It could be signed in a bilateral format or in a third partner country; no option is excluded," he said.
