German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, who hosted the talks in Villa Borsig, thanked her counterparts for coming to Berlin, and undertaking negotiations to resolve their disputes.

Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan had decided to continue peace talks following a meeting two weeks ago on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference, Anadolu Agency reported.

Baerbock said resolving outstanding issues through diplomatic talks and peace between Baku and Yerevan would bring new opportunities both for the two countries, and the whole South Caucasus region.

An Armenian government statement on the trilateral meeting said Aliyev and Pashinian agreed to “continue the work on a peace treaty” between their countries. It announced no other understandings reached by them.
