Presidents should resume the negotiation process and find the issue’s

Presidents showed that the Azerbaijani party did not wish to conduct
talks.

according to which `Armenians fear war’, Seyran Ohanyan stated,
`Armenians do not fear war, and, beginning with 1988 up to today, our
defense makes us absolutely sure of ourselves’. He remarked Baku’s
belligerent statements are oriented exclusively towards inner
consumer.
