/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "It is very difficult to call statements by
Azerbaijani MFA Press Officer an ‘interpretation’ of some segments
of the Armenian Prime Minister’s interview to the Los Angeles Times,"
said Vladimir Karapetian, Spokesman for the Armenian Foreign Ministry.
"It is also rather amusing that an official whose lies a local media
outlet recently exposed and who carries diplomatic rank, attempts to
pass judgment on one of the leaders of a neighboring country," he said.
"It is regrettable that the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry spokesperson
has inherited both the style and the methods of his predecessor,
as well as the moral stance of his authorities. It would appear that
such an approach has become tradition for the Azerbaijani MFA. Perhaps
we can’t expect more of a country where intolerance and blind hate
towards national minorities and their cultural heritage has achieved
political heights. There are plenty of examples of this, including the
daily calls for war. For Armenia, religious tolerance and cooperation
with neighboring countries are not empty words. Rather, together,
they are our past, our daily life, our daily relations and our shared
future," he said.
A couple of days ago Khazar Ibrahim said that Armenian Prime Minister
Serge Sargsyan is "far from reality if he thinks that the core Nagorno
Karabakh conflict is the religious factor." Ibrahim made the remarks
in response to Sargsyan’s statement that the religious factor exists
in the Karabakh conflict
