Azerbaijan Says Constitutional Change Required for Peace Treaty

Azerbaijan's presidential aide Hikmet Hajiyev has reiterated that a constitutional amendment is a prerequisite for finalizing a peace treaty with Armenia, according to reporting from Massis Post.

The statement reflects Baku's position on key conditions for resolving the ongoing dispute between the two nations. Constitutional amendments would likely relate to territorial designations and legal frameworks governing any final agreement.

This development comes amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to establish a comprehensive peace accord between Armenia and Azerbaijan following the 2020 war in Nagorno-Karabakh. Both nations have engaged in intermittent negotiations, though significant disagreements over treaty terms persist.

The prerequisite conditions set by either side remain central obstacles to reaching a final settlement that both governments can ratify.
