ARMENIA SAYS AZERBAIJAN PANICS THAT KOSOVO MAY BE PRECEDENT FOR KARABAKH

Yerevan, 29 February: The head of the media relations department of
the Armenian Foreign Ministry, Tigran Balayan, has said, "Azerbaijan
is in a panic at the thought that Kosovo may become a precedent
[for its breakaway region of Nagornyy Karabakh]."

Tigran Balayan said this in comments on various Azerbaijani initiatives
presented after Kosovo declared independence.

"Armenia confirms its position regarding the specific features of each
conflict and confirms that all movements for self-determination should
have the possibility to develop and reach their natural and logical
development. The more that Azerbaijan declares that Kosovo cannot be
a precedent, the more people will think about the existence of obvious
parallels between the two conflicts," the Armenian diplomat said.

“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
