ICO head urges Armenia to free Azeri territories
Baku, June 8, AssA-Irada
The top official of an influential Islamic organization has urged
Armenia to vacate the occupied territories of Azerbaijan.
`Armenia is an aggressor and the occupied territories must be
liberated unconditionally,’ Secretary General of the Organization of
Islamic Conference (OIC), Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, told the press during
his official visit to Russia.
Ihsanoglu said the ICO backs the ongoing talks on settling the Upper
(Nagorno) Garabagh conflict with the OSCE Minsk Group’s mediation,
which means the group adheres to a negotiated settlement.*

“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
