Kazakhstan President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, in a statement on his X social media account, announced that he welcomes the agreement reached between the parties to hold negotiations between their foreign ministers regarding the preparation of a peace treaty between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
Stating that the negotiations in question will be held in Almaty upon the proposal of the Kazakh side, Tokayev said, "It is symbolic that this important meeting will take place in Almaty, where the historic Alma-Ata Declaration was signed in December 1991, which established the foundations for the independent development of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries and approved the principles regarding the determination of borders between countries."
President Tokayev added that he is confident the meeting will serve the practical implementation of Azerbaijan-Armenia agreements and contribute to the rapid establishment of a strong and long-term peace in the South Caucasus.
During his official visit to Armenia on April 15, Tokayev had stated that they fully support the conclusion of a peace treaty between Armenia and Azerbaijan and that Kazakhstan is ready to undertake a good-will mission in this regard.
