7 July: Ethnic Azerbaijani poets, writers and cultural figures living
in Iran have sent an appeal to Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinezhad,
Said Muganli, editor of Yarpaq newspaper published in Iran, has
told APA.

Muganli said that in the letter, the intellectuals expressed their
outrage at the visit to Iran by Armenian President Robert Kocharyan
and at the signing of a major energy agreement between the two
countries. Muganli also said that on 6 July the police dispersed a
rally staged by Azerbaijanis in front of the Armenian embassy in Iran
in protest against Kocharyan’s visit to Iran. The rally demanded that
Kocharyan immediately leave Iran.

Emil Lazarian: “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
