Baku, July 3, AssA-Irada
Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanian has praised the latest
proposals of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen mediating settlement
to the Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh conflict.

"The proposals are largely acceptable for the Armenian side and we are
ready to continue talks with Azerbaijan," he told a news conference
in Yerevan on Monday.

The minister said the suggestions equally benefit both parties to
the conflict, regarding this as "the right way to reach compromise".

"I believe that Azerbaijan will realize this and take appropriate
steps," said Oskanian.

“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
