YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 23, ARMENPRESS. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin and the EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the crisis in Georgia Toivo Klaar held phone talks on February 21 at the initiative of the EU, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced.

Galuzin and Klaar discussed the Armenian-Azerbaijani settlement topic, according to a read-out issued by the Russian Foreign Ministry.

“Galuzin noted that Brussels’ decision to deploy a so-called civilian EU mission in Armenia has a clear geopolitical subtext, which doesn’t contribute to real stabilization in Transcaucasia. The absence of consensus between Baku and Yerevan around this initiative was underscored,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said.

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
