The head of the Azerbaijani Wrestling Federation has said that
President Ilham Aliyev will personally guarantee the security of
Armenian sportsmen during the World Greco-Roman Wrestling Championship
in Baku in September2007, the Azerbaijani news agency Turan has
reported.

Cavid Qurbanov said that more than 30 Armenian sportsmen will be
visiting Baku to participate in the championship, Turan said.

At the same time, the Karabakh Liberation Organization, a pressure
group that opposes any ties with Armenia, has spoken out against the
Armenian sportsmen’s visit to Baku. The organization thinks it is
unacceptable to allow Armenians to visit Azerbaijan, Turan said.

“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
