Armenia-Turkey Protocols’ ratification process grows complex in
Turkish Parliament without Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement,
Turkish Premier Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in Spain, Turkish Zaman
daily reports.

OSCE Minsk Group should find a fair settlement to the dispute and
then the major issue between Armenia and Turkey will be resolved,
he emphasized.

"Of 170.000 Armenians living in Turkey only 100.000 are not Turkish
citizens. They are in a jam, that is why we do not deport them and
permit their stay in our country. This is an exercise of good will
by our side," Erdogan 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
