On May 10, Armenian Ambassador to Russia O. Yesayan met with the
veterans of the Great Patriotic War arrived from Armenia. The diplomats
of the Armenian Embassy in Moscow participated in the meeting.

"Armenpress" correspondent from Moscow reports that welcoming the
veterans the ambassador congratulated all the guests on the Victory
Day and expressed them gratitude for taking a victory. Noting that May
9 is also the day of Shushi liberation and formation of the NKR army,
the ambassador stressed the decisive significance of those events in
Artsakh liberation fight.

In his speech O. Yesayan also referred to Azerbaijani ambassador’s
military rhetoric at the meeting with Azerbaijani veterans. "No
diplomat who respects himself will come forward with a regular military
rhetoric in the country he is hosted in the days of victory in front
of the veterans who have taken a joint victory, even if that diplomat
represents Azerbaijan, a country where the anti-Armenian hysteria has
become a state policy. I consider it troublesome and very condemnable.

The war does not solve any issue, but deepens the old one and creates
a new issue, so suchlike calls are senseless. Nevertheless, if the
events develop in a military scenario, the leadership of Armenia and
the Nagorno Karabakh Republic will receive new proposals with a request
of establishing a regular ceasefire regime by those who levied war,"
the ambassador noted.
