the Armenian Genocide and regulation of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict

in an interview with Russian "Izvestiya". Talking about the relations
with Azerbaijan the Prime Minister recalled that the peace process is
going in frames of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs representing Russia,
France and the USA. The Prime Minister stated: "Russia initiated
reciprocal meetings of the authorities of our countries; there is a
direct connection between them. Such ties are of a certain importance.
Due to this the both sides can discuss not merely priority issues, but
common human topics as well. This is a unique search for mutual trust."
The Head of the Government of the Republic of Armenia certified that
presently Armenia is blockaded by Turkey and Azerbaijan. The sanctions
against Iran also have negative influence on us and thus our "way of
life" passes through Georgia.

Turkey. He stated: "We are trying to abstain our emotions regarding
the Armenian Genocide of 1915. Therefore our president initiated
negotiations with Turkey for the establishment of diplomatic relations
without any precondition. EU, the Russian Federation, the United
States of America approved our initiative. As to the protocols they
have been signed in Switzerland. We were under huge pressure. The
Armenian Diaspora was against the negotiations with Turkey and the
ratification of the protocols. Notwithstanding, due to this step we
aproved our political reputation as a reliable partner."

regulation of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict are links of the same
chain." In addition the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia noted
