/PanARMENIAN.Net/ September 26 NKR FM Georgy Petrosyan received
Vice-Speaker of the British House of Lords, Chair of the Council
of Trustees for Humanitarian Assistance, baroness Caroline Cox,
who arrived in Stepanakert along with a delegation of British and
US philanthropists.

When opening the meeting the head of the NKR MFA expressed readiness
to provide support to programs implemented by British and US
philanthropists in Karabakh. As of the Karabakh peace process,
Georgy Petrosyan was concerned over Azerbaijan’s attempts to shift
the settlement from the OSCE MG aegis to UN.

"We are seriously studying the current situation, making conclusions
to make respective steps. It is impossible to solve a matter, relating
to the fate of a people, without taking into consideration its own
opinion. We played a role in establishing the cease-fire, why are we
deprived of the right to strengthen peace today?" the NKR FM said.

As for relations with Armenia, Petrosyan underscored, "Armenia is the
guarantor of NKR independence and security. As for political relations,
principle of non-intervention is observed."

As of fires in the border zone, Petrosyan remarked the NKR had turned
to the OSCE suggesting to hold monitoring to have an impartial opinion,
reported the NKR MFA Press Office.

“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
