Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian stated today in Yerevan
that recent statements by the Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister
Araz Azimov regarding settling of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict do
not have any connection with negotiated suggestions.

"Azimov only expressed his opinion reflecting Azerbaijan’s position but
having nothing to do with the negotiations for which determination
of Nagorno-Karabakh’s status through plebiscite of the region’s
population is key priority," Nalbandian said.

According to him, the negotiated suggestions are the result of
long-term efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group and Armenia is ready to
continue the negotiations on the basis of the suggestions.

"Our internal policy will not experience drastic changes, but we intend
to achieve success in those directions in which we have failed to do
that," he said.

"We will be very glad to see newly appointed US Ambassador and we
hope he will arrive in Yerevan soon," Nalbandian 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
