YEREVAN. - There is rather an abyss than deep distrust between
Armenia and Azerbaijan, said Armenia's Deputy Foreign Minister Arman
Kirakosyan.
There is no such gap even between Armenia and Turkey despite
closed border and lack of diplomatic relations, he said addressing
participants of an international conference in Yerevan.
The deputy minister stressed that creating conditions for the
development of mutual trust is of paramount importance for Yerevan,
given that the Armenian and Azeri people will live in this region,
and existence of dividing lines is unacceptable.
In this regard, Kirakosyan noted that the interim status of
Nagorno-Karabakh supposes involvement of the world community in
creating conditions and integration of two peoples in the regional
projects ahead of conducting a referendum on final status.
"Atmosphere of hatred is stirred up by Azerbaijani leadership," he
said recalling Armenia had repeatedly expressed readiness to cooperate
as collaboration in economic, commercial projects can only facilitate
a political solution.
