Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said today that he has
called the attention of the international community to the fact that
there are “a number of Azerbaijani fighters” among Islamic State
(ISIS) terrorist group.

“During Artsakh War, Azerbaijan is known to have hired a number
of mercenaries from Afghanistan and other countries maintaining
close ties with international terrorist infrastructures. Presently,
Azerbaijan claims to struggle against extremists. I would not like
to comment on the level of productivity and sincerity of that struggle.

One thing is clear – a number of Azerbaijani fighters take part in
ISIS terrorist acts”, Armenian FM stated at the joint press conference
with Lithuanian FM in Yerevan today.

A number of media, among them Azerbaijani, informed yesterday that
notorious terrorist Hallett Azeri known as the leader of Azerbaijani
guerillas during Karabakh War was killed as a result of blows of
coalition forces struggling against the terrorist group.

“We should realize that terrorism might convert to uncontrollable
violence. These terrorist acts prove once again the urgency of uniting
the efforts of the international community”, said Edward Nalbandian.

“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
