(Ukraine), and P.Key (Great Britain).
According to the source, a radio-monitoring was held at first and
contact with OSCE representatives participating in the monitoring on
the Azerbaijani party was established. As a result, the commanders of
the military units of both parties provided guarantees of security to

“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
