The European Union says conclusion of Azerbaijan and Armenia talks and agreement on the text of a possible treaty, "a decisive step."

But hurdles remain. Azerbaijan also said Armenia’s constitution must “eliminate the claims against the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan,” as a prerequisite to allow for the signing of the peace treaty.

Armenia and Azerbaijan remain far from achieving peace despite the announcement of the completion of negotiations on a draft peace treaty, claims opposition Pativ Unem faction MP Tigran Abrahamyan.
