YEREVAN, MARCH 22, ARMENPRESS. Armenia does not negotiate on the issue of installing a checkpoint in the Lachin corridor, ARMENPRESS reports, Armenian FM Ararat Mirzoyan said during parliament-Cabinet Q&A session.

"Armenia considers that the negotiations on the Lachin Corridor and its regime have long been completed and the regulations were included in the document signed by the leaders of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Russia on November 9, 2020. It says that the Lachin Corridor remains under the control of Russian peacekeepers and Azerbaijan ensures unhindered two-way traffic," Mirzoyan noted.

According to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, it is a recorded agreement, and Armenia should already have doubts about the expediency of further negotiations.

"In other words, what is the point of reaching agreements on other issues if they will definitely be violated by Azerbaijan after some time? No, we are not negotiating on establishing an Azerbaijani checkpoint in the Lachin corridor," Mirzoyan stated.

“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
