"Arkady Gukasyan and others should understand that Azerbaijan is
developing and better life, the protection of rights of Armenians can
only be ensured in being in the composite of Azerbaijan. To come to
joint opinion with Mr. Merzlyakov and with some others does not mean
that the positions of the sides in the settlement of the conflict are
the same," Deputy Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Araz Azimov said when
commenting on the issue whether Kosovo variant is precedent for
Azerbaijan.

Saying that Russian co-chair Yuri Merzlyakov has his own agenda;
deputy minister stressed that to say something in the frame of this
agenda does not mean that Azerbaijani side will adopt it.

"The settlement of Kosovo problem has not completed yet and
Azerbaijan and some members of international society consider that
proposed model for the settlement of the Kosovo conflict should be
satisfactory for both sides. At the same time, Azerbaijani side
thinks that NK’s belonging to Azerbaijan is not under question," he
said.

The deputy minister touched on further meetings in the framework of
the settlement of the conflict and noted that the date has not been
set yet.

The official did not rule out the meeting of the presidents either.

"Azerbaijani side will be ready to negotiations on condition of
concrete motives for discussions," he said. APA

“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
