PanARMENIAN.Net - Secretary of Armenia's Security Council Armen Grigoryan has said that Azerbaijan hasn't presented "any legal grounds" about possessing enclaves on the territory of Armenia.

The Armenian side, meanwhile, does have legal substantiation proving tha existence of an enclave of its own in Azerbaijan, the Secretary said.

"Armenia's position on the matter remains the same: we expect Azerbaijan to provide a legal basis for the existence of its enclaves," Grigoryan said.

Armenia’s Ambassador at-large Edmon Marukyan said earlier that there was no legal ground that any de-jure Azerbaijani enclave has ever existed in the territory of Armenia. Marukyan's remarks came on Tuesday, May 10, after Azerbaijan's Deputy Foreign Minister Khalaf Khalafov said that enclaves in the territory of Armenia will be returned to Baku.

“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
