Editors-in-chief of the Azg and Aravot dailies Hakob Avetikyan and
Aram Abrahamyan today discussed "The role of media in the process of
settlement of the Karabakh conflict."

According to Avetikyan, media should address the issue, especially
in cases when people unaware of the negotiation process speak about
the Karabakh issue. The editor-in-chief of Azg daily calculated that
46 press conferences were held following the Mindorf Declaration,
participants of which were decorated with the title of a political
scientist by media.

The editor-in-chief of the Aravot daily also considers that media
should react to the issue. However, in today’s situation our officials
become very reticent after important meetings, while in Azerbaijan
officials publicize their assessments and comments of the negotiations
and our press has to quote them.

“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
