YEREVAN, JULY 26, ARMENPRESS. Negotiations are being held to organize a meeting between the Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, according to a senior lawmaker.

“Recently rather active work is done in the diplomatic sector, including in the context of the parliament, parliamentary diplomacy,” the Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee of the Armenian Parliament Eduard Aghajanyan told reporters when asked whether or not meetings between the Armenian and Azeri leaders or foreign ministers are expected. “And meetings are rather often, in various formats. And as far as I know there are also negotiations that sometime later a meeting must take place between the leaders of the countries.”

Aghajanyan did not mention possible timeframes.

“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
