BAKU, Azerbaijan — More than 20 Azeri and Armenian soldiers have
been killed in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh since July,
an Azerbaijan government official said Thursday. Armenia disputed
the claim.

Eldar Sabirogly, a spokesman for the Azerbaijan Defense Ministry,
said at least 15 Armenian soldiers died during that period. He said
the number of Azeri soldiers was half that number.

However, officials with Armenia’s Defense Ministry said Armenia had
lost no soldiers during that period. Officials in Nagorno-Karabakh,
which lies within Azerbaijan, also said their forces had seen no
losses.

“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
