/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Ankara can’t be a mediator in the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement process, AFR Dashnaktsutyun Bureau representatives
said.

"The possibility of Turkey’s participation in talks has become a topic
of hot discussions recently but the fact is that Turkey can only
facilitate Karabakh problem resolution by influencing Azerbaijan,"
Aghvan Vardanyan told a news conference in Yerevan today.

"Present-day Turkey pursues a flexible foreign policy and advocates its
interests throughout the globe. It put forth its Caucasus stability and
cooperation pact immediately after the war in South Ossetia. Now, after
the U.S. presidential election, it wants to moderate its relations
with the U.S. and Iran," he said, adding that the outcome of the
U.S. election opened a possibility for Armenia to take a correct
stand in relations with Washington, Moscow and Brussels.

Commenting in the Moscow declaration on Karabakh, Vardanyan said
he doesn’t foresee any changes in the process. "Concerns over the
frozen conflict in Karabakh aroused after the South Ossetian war. This
declaration was meant to emphasize the role of Russia in resolution of
this conflict, which will hardly be resolved during the coming months."

“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
