Budapest: Szijjarto voices concern over renewed tension between Azerbaijan, Armenia

 THE BUDAPEST TIMES 
Hungary – Aug 12 2023
Szijjarto voices concern over
renewed tension between
Azerbaijan, Armenia  

Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said reports of renewed tension between Azerbaijan and
Armenia with regard to deliveries of humanitarian aid were "unsettling" in a post on
Facebook on Saturday.

“Hungary stands on the side of peace and urges an end to the suffering of people who have
lived through a long war. I informed both of my counterparts, Jeyhun Bayramov, the Azeri
foreign minister, and Ararat Mirzoyan, the Armenian foreign minister, by phone on that
position yesterday evening,” he said. 

“Hungary will always take a position in support of peaceful resolution, territorial integrity and
respect for sovereignty. We welcomed the peace agreement and hope that its
implementation will save many, many people from suffering,” he added.
Szijjarto acknowledged the roles of international organisations, especially the Red Cross, in
assisting in the situation.

   
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
