Humanitarian concerns, including the issue of prisoners, have been left out of the draft peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan, Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan said on Friday. His remarks followed the announcement that the countries had agreed on the text of the peace treaty.

After the signing of the peace agreement with Azerbaijan, the role of EU observers in Armenia will be reviewed, stated Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan.

Armenia and Azerbaijan have fought a series of wars since the late 1980s, when Nagorno-Karabakh, a region in Azerbaijan that had a mostly Armenian population at the time, broke away from Baku with Yerevan's support.
