BAKU, June 30. /TASS/. Azerbaijan and Armenia have come to terms regarding several provisions of the draft Agreement on Peace and the Establishment of Interstate Relations, the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan said in a statement on Friday.

"The Ministers and their teams continued progress on the draft bilateral Agreement on Peace and the Establishment of Interstate Relations," the ministry said after talks between Minister of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan Jeyhun Bayramov and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia Ararat Mirzoyan in the US.

"They reached an agreement on additional articles and achieved mutual understanding on the draft agreement, meanwhile acknowledging that the positions on some key issues require further work," the statement says.

Both ministers expressed their appreciation to the US side for hosting the negotiations.

Bayramov and Mirzoyan met in Washington on June 27-29. Earlier, the top diplomats met in the US capital in early May.

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
