Pashinyan described the agreement as ‘unspeakably painful for me personally and our people’.
Meanwhile, the Azerbaijan President, Ilham Aliyev, called it a ‘clear defeat of Armenia’ and said that the Azerbaijani forces’ unceasing military successes in the occupied region had forced Armenia to sign the peace deal.
“The liberation of around 300 settlements since September 27 has broken the back of the Armenian army,” Aliyev remarked.

The agreement came hours after Armenian forces confirmed losing control of Shushi (also called ‘Shusha’ in Armenia), the second-largest city in the Nagorno region.
The deal includes the deployment of peacekeepers, the withdrawal of troops, and the handing over of part of the Karabakh-Azeri border areas back to Azerbaijan. In return, Azerbaijani forces will stop their assault on the region’s biggest city, Stepanakert.
Aliyev announced that the Kalbajar District would be delivered to Baku on 20 November, Agdam by 15 November, and Lachin by 1 December.
He further maintained that Russia will deploy 1,960 peacekeeping soldiers and 90 armored vehicles along the Nagorno-Karabakh contact line and to the Lachin Corridor.
The president also said that a joint Turkish and Russia peacekeeping mission will stay in Karabakh.
Countrywide protests have erupted in Armenia following the announcement of the truce. An angry mob stormed the parliament building in Armenia’s capital Yerevan, demanding to see Prime Minister Pashinyan after had he announced the ceasefire deal with Azerbaijan. The ceasefire will halt the weeks-long deadly attacks which have taken over 1,000 lives in the Nagorno-Karabakh region.
