“The negotiating process between Azerbaijani and Armenian Presidents
is very slow and tough.

However, the process is promising to reach the goal by solving small
issues through stages. Though tough, this step should be taken and
the talks should be continued,” President’s Office international
relations department head Novruz Mammadov said to APA.

Stating that the forecasts on the solution of the Nagorno Garabagh
conflict made by several international organizations as well as OSCE
Minsk Group co-chairs did not come true, Mr.Mammadov recalled Steven
Mann’s forecast “2006 will be promising year in the settlement of
the Nagorno Garabagh conflict.”

“The conflict has a strategic content. The interests of several sates
and regions collide here,” he said.

Responding to the question “Then there will be no turning point
in the solution of the conflict this year too,” Mammadov said,
“Decisive steps can be taken to solve the conflict this year.”

“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
