YEREVAN, JANUARY 20, ARMENPRESS. Foreign Minister Ara Aivazian reaffirmed Armenia’s readiness to resume the negotiations over Nagorno Karabakh in the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmanship format.

“The Armenian side is ready to begin negotiations in the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmanship format and conduct negotiations around the fundamental principles around which an agreement had been achieved in the past,” he said in parliament during a Q&A with lawmakers.

Aivazian said that the Armenian side’s priority issues are the "unblocking", the safe return of the Armenian population to their settlements, ensuring humanitarian assistance to Artsakh and the preservation of the Armenian religious and cultural heritage.

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
