#MiddleEastEye: "Nikol Pashinyan and Aliyev will meet in Dubai at the end of July"
![]() 534 Thursday, 03 July, 2025, 10:00 Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev are scheduled to meet in Dubai later this month as the two countries continue negotiations towards a peace agreement, Middle East Eye has learned. Although Armenia and Azerbaijan reached consensus on a draft peace agreement in March, Baku is still insisting on several additional conditions before formally signing the deal. Azerbaijan demands that Yerevan amend its constitution to remove references to Azerbaijani territory, end the European Union Monitoring Mission (EUMA) in Armenia, and dissolve the OSCE Minsk Group, which Baku has accused of bias over the past three decades. The source added that the UAE is eager to host the talks as part of its efforts to improve relations between the two Caucasian nations. Two sources familiar with the matter told MEE that the planned meeting in Dubai is a positive sign, indicating that both parties remain willing to engage despite ongoing disagreements. Pashinyan faces elections next year, and experts say it is unlikely he could push through a constitutional referendum before the vote. |
