/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia holds its positions firms in Karabakh
settlement talks, President Serzh Sargsyan said during the meeting
with his Croatian colleague Stefan Mesich. The most important thing,
according to the President, is Karabakh status and the nation’s
right to self-determination. "We are ready to proceed with talks,
and the next meeting with Azeri President will very probably take
place in St. Petersburg in the nearest future. And I don’t think
anyone will thereafter say that Armenia waives its positions," the
President stressed.

Stefan Mesich in his turn underlined that military settlement of
old conflicts does lead to anything good. He brought the example of
Croatia which gained independence after Yugoslavia’s collapse. "War
in Yugoslavia lasted long. We lost a lot of people, but the borders
remained unchanged. The best way to achieve conflict settlement is
to conduct talks," Mesich 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
