Answering the question of the Lithuanian national TV channel reporter
in Yerevan, Armenian president Robert Kocharyan refuted the suggestion
that the United States is trying to please Azerbaijan in case of a
possible campaign against Iran, and presses Armenia for the Karabakh
issue. “There is no additional pressure, directly related with the
settlement of the issue. There are negotiations, and the work of
the co-chairs, which is not only the United States but also France
and Russia, is coordinated and cooperative. And the mandate of the
mediators suggests steps at facilitating the talks and not pressure
for resolution,” said Robert Kocharyan. He said the contacts and
the process are quite active now, but the president of Armenia
does not connect it with the plans of the United States concerning
Iran. “I have not noticed any relationship between the talks for
the settlement of the Karabakh conflict and the problem of Iran,”
stated Robert Kocharyan.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
