Germany, Berlin / Ð¢rend corr A. Maharramli / The visit of the
head of the subcommittee on Nagorno-Karabakh of the Parliamentary
Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) lord Russell Johnston to
Armenia and Azerbaijan scheduled for the beginning of November has
been postponed. "My visit to the region is to take place by the end
of the year, but the exact date has not been set yet," lord Johnston
said to Trend in Berlin on 5 November.

His visit to the region was expected to take place on 9
November. Johnston said to Trend in October that the date of the
visit had to be coordinated with the working schedules of Armenian
and Azerbaijani Presidents.

We are coordinating the date of the visit, he said.

The PACE subcommittee on Nagorno-Karabakh was established in the
spring of 2005 to control implementation of the PACE Resolution on
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

"My subcommittee is not a mediator in settlement of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The idea was to improve contacts
and dialogue primarily between Azerbaijani and Armenian
parliamentarians. We may hold workshops in Baku and Yerevan and thus
will improve the relations," lord Johnston said to Trend previously.

“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
