Armenian PM says ready to change Constitution to achieve peace

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, during his address at the 79th session of the UN General Assembly in New York on Thursday, said that if the Constitutional Court decides that the peace agreement with Azerbaijan contradicts the Armenian Constitution, Armenia will have to make constitutional amendments to achieve peace.

“After signing the peace agreement with Azerbaijan, we must submit it to the Constitutional Court to verify the compliance of the agreement with the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia. If our Constitutional Court decides that the agreement contradicts the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia, then we will have to make constitutional amendments to achieve peace,” he said.
