YEREVAN, MAY 11, ARMENPRESS. Armenia’s Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) Arman Tatoyan expressed readiness to meet with the new Human Rights Commissioner of Azerbaijan.

“There is a new commissioner [of human rights] in Azerbaijan. During the tenure of the previous commissioner, I had always expressed my readiness before our international partners to meet and discuss issues, but I have always mentioned that if there are issues concerning Artsakh then the Artsakhi Ombudsman must participate in those discussions”, Tatoyan said in parliament.

Tatoyan said they must understand the goal of these hypothetical meetings.

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
