Baku mostly approves of the updated Karabakh settlement principles,
Azeri Foreign Minister Elmar Mamedyarov told a Monday press briefing
following negotiations with OSCE Chairman- in-Office, Kazakh State
Secretary – Foreign Minister Kanat Saudabayev.

"The updated settlement principles, which the OSCE Minsk Group co-
chairmen put forward in Athens, are acceptable," he said.

"We generally acknowledge these principles but there are certain
aspects that require further coordination," Mamedyarov said.

He said he had recently spoken to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei
Lavrov who said that Armenia had not commented on the updated
principles yet.

The status quo in the Karabakh settlement process is impermissible,
Mamedyarov said. "The notions of ‘ethnic cleansing’ and ‘occupied
lands’ are not acceptable if we develop a normal relationship within
the OSCE framework," he said.

Emil Lazarian: “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
