The most efficient format of the talks on unblocking the transport communications in the South Caucasus is a trilateral working group led by the deputy prime ministers of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told a weekly briefing on Thursday.

“Eight meetings in this format have already been held and all sides highly appreciate the work of the working group,” she said.

"We believe it is right to adhere to the statements and steps that contribute to the implementation of trilateral agreements to unblock all economic and transport links in the Transcaucasus," the spokeswoman noted.

“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
