“Our goal, our idea is for you to say: 'Azerbaijan is 50 meters away' not with alarm, but to say: 'It’s good that Azerbaijan is 50 meters away, we will engage in trade there, build a farm.' Or maybe a checkpoint will also be built through which cars will pass and pay for it to the Republic of Armenia,” Pashinyan noted.
