Russian Foreign Minister In Turkey For Talks

RUSSIAN FOREIGN MINISTER IN TURKEY FOR TALKS

Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is in Turkey for talks on
the Georgian crisis and a trade dispute.

Turkey has threatened to retaliate against new Russian import controls
that are seen as an attempt to punish Turkey for allowing U.S. warships
carrying aid to reach Georgia.

The extra import checks for Turkish goods have resulted in hundreds
of Turkish trucks being held up at Russian border posts.

Lavrov and Turkey’s Foreign Minister Ali Babacan are also to discuss
a Turkish plan for a regional group to stabilize the Caucasus region
following war between Russia and Georgia.

The group would include Turkey and four nearby Caucasus nations:
Russia, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Emil Lazarian: “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
