To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the prospects for a negotiated peace between the governments of Azerbaijan and Armenia; and what steps they are taking to support the current negotiations between the two parties.

The Minister of State for Europe, North America and UK Overseas Territories spoke with Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan on 11 October and Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov on 31 October. Both parties highlighted progress on peace negotiations, supported by meetings between the two countries in Istanbul and Kazan in October. The Government is clear that a sustainable peace is key for the stability and prosperity of both countries and the region, and we stand ready to support the two sides to achieve this goal.
