/PanARMENIAN.Net/ USA approves of steps directed at Armenian-Turkish
rapprochement and opening of borders, US Deputy Secretary of State
James Steinberg stated at a joint news conference with RA Foreign
Minister Edward Nalbandian.
According to James Steinberg, world community is interested in
Armenian-Turkish rapprochement. `At the same time, we’re assured that
Armenian-Turkish relations and NKR conflict are absolutely different
problems, not linked to each other. They could be resolved
simultaneously, but I wouldn’t link them together,’ Steinberg said.
`Armenia still adheres to its position, which was repeatedly
announced: we’re ready to normalize relations with Turkish without
preconditions,’ RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian emphasized in
his turn

“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
