YEREVAN, MARCH 26, ARMENPRESS. The return of the prisoners of war captured during the recent Nagorno Karabakh conflict is one of the priority directions of the Russian leadership, and everything possible is being done for quickly solving this issue, Russian Ambassador to Armenia Sergei Kopyrkin told reporters, commenting on the upcoming talks of the Russian, Armenian and Azerbaijani foreign ministers.

“Works are underway on this direction, and some progress is being achieved. I am sure that everything will be done for this issue to be solved as quickly as possible. You know our position, the “all for all” format is a more logical approach. Everything possible is being done, that issue will be discussed during the talks”, the Ambassador said.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will meet with Foreign Minister of Armenia Ara Aivazian and Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov on April 2 on the sidelines of the session of the CIS Council of Foreign Ministers.

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
