/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Unless finite peace is achieved Azerbaijan will not
cooperate with Armenia within the World Trade Organization, Azeri Deputy FM
Mahmud Mamedkuliyev stated July 7 at a briefing. He is convinced that
Armenia will not prevent Azerbaijan from entering the organization. To
remind, Armenia joined the WTO in 2001. In Mamedkuliyev’s words, Armenia
passed ahead of Azerbaijan because it sent its appeal earlier, in 1993.
`Armenia was admitted to the WTO with certain concessions. However today the
country with weak economy cannot honor its obligations and made a request to
mitigate them’, he noted adding he is not sure whether the WTO will comply
with Armenia’s request.

“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
