Armenian foreign minister Vardan Oskanyan said when making a speech
at the first ArmTech CONGRESS ’07 San Francisco, USA July 7, 2007.

As ArmInfo was informed from press-service of Foreign Ministry,
Vardan Oskanyan said that Armenia will not allow an unrepentant
Turkey to determine our agenda. "We will also not limit our choices
and options by the lack of a willingness on the part of Azerbaijan
to enter into a lasting agreement.

They do not want to acknowledge either the past, or the present. As
a result, they are not interested in discussing a common future",
the minister added.

Oskanyan also said: "The mental state of war persists in Azerbaijan. In
Armenia and Karabakh, I am proud to say that OUR outlook is towards
the future, towards an eventual peace, towards progress, stability
and prosperity".
