/PanARMENIAN.Net/ OSCE Minsk Group U.S. Co-chair Matthew Bryza said
he still hopes that Presidents Ilham Aliyev and Robert Kocharian will
iron out their differences on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict in the
coming months on the most recent peace proposals of the OSCE Minsk
Group. "However I think it’s possible to work through an election
season and still make progress," Bryza said in an exclusive interview
with RFE/RL.

He said he was assured by Kocharian that the Minsk Group plan is
essentially acceptable to Yerevan. "I enjoyed hearing his account
of where things stand and how we got here," he said. "I felt a
constructive, candid attitude on his part. He was very open. And he
helped me think through what sort of recommendations I might bring
to my fellow co-chairs," Mr Bryza remarked.

“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
