YEREVAN, JUNE 9, ARMENPRESS. Russia welcomes the process of normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations, ARMENPRESS reports, during a joint press conference with his Armenian counterpart Ararat Mirzoyan in Yerevan, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that normalization of Armenia-Turkey relations will contribute to the improvement and stabilization of the general situation in the region.

“In this context, in our common opinion, it is necessary to ensure the dynamic work of the “3 + 3″ regional platform with the participation of the three countries of the South Caucasus and their three neighbors. This is an important additional channel for the formation of dialogue and development of multilateral cooperation between the countries of the region and their neighbors,” he added.

Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan, in his turn, welcomed the statements of the Turkish authorities that they are ready to normalize, establish diplomatic relations with the Republic of Armenia, as well as open the Armenian-Turkish border, but at the same time added that the attempts of the Turkish leadership to find interconnectedness between the Armenian-Turkish and Armenian-Azerbaijani issues are not constructive.

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
