YEREVAN, JUNE 21, ARMENPRESS.  Russia understands that the possible opening of the Turkish consulate in Shushi is a sensitive issue for Armenia, ARMENPRESS reports, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, stated during a press conference, commenting on the statement of Turkish President Recep Erdogan that Ankara is ready to open a consulate general in Shushi at any moment.

"The issue of opening consulates anywhere, particularly in Shushi, remains a topic of bilateral relations. In this case, between Baku and Ankara.

At the same time, we understand the sensitivity of the issue for Yerevan. In our contacts, we emphasize the need to consider each other's interests and the importance of the process of normalization of both Armenian-Azerbaijani and Armenian-Turkish relations," said Zakharova.

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
