Azerbaijani officials have a unique talent of focusing too much on repeated demands while taking actions running counter to them, FM Edward Nalbandian said today commenting on the Azerbaijani foreign minister’s recent statement highlighting the unacceptability of the status quo over Nagorno-Karabakh.

At a news conference held jointly with his Estonian counterpart, Sven Mikser, Armenia’s top diplomat also blamed the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry for never abiding by the committment to coordinate joint press releases.

Citing the UN Security Council resolitions, repeatedly cited by Azerbaijan, Nalbandian also highlighted Azerbaijan’s failure to take steps towards their implementation.

“There are four resolutions by the UN Security Council, because after each resolution’s passage, Azerbaijan rejected the previous one. Besides, they were not about the negotiation process but were rather aimed at ending military operations and establishing ceasefire,” he added.

“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
