UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said that positive relations between
Turkey and Armenia would be in the interest of the region and bring
stability to the troubled area.

The UN leader urged the two sided to come together and finalize what
he described as a "landmark" set of protocols signed by their foreign
ministers last October committing the two nations to normalizing
their relations and opening borders.

Referring to the Armenian Genocide, Ban Ki-moon said he knew there was
a long-lasting historical matter between the two countries, making
relations difficult. "However, positive and harmonized relations
between Turkey and Armenia, being two important countries of the
same region, would be extremely important both for stability and
peace in the region and for the cooperation of the peoples of the
two countries," he said, Asbarez.com reported.

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
