AZERI ARE AGAINST PEACE VISITS

While the Ambassadors of Armenia and Azerbaijan to Russia Armen Smbatyan and Polad Bul Bul have been planning to pay a peace visit to Nagorno-Karabakh, the Azeri Ambassador’s private residence has been attacked by some unknown people, “Hayq” says.

In 2007 by the initiative of the Ambassadors of Armenia and Azerbaijan a group of Armenian and Azeri intellectuals visited Stepanakert, Yerevan and Baku. Currently the Ambassadors themselves plan to pay a peace visit to Armenia, Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan.

“In the aftermath of the previous visit a small shadow of hope felt the hearts of our people,” Armen Smbatyan told “Regnum”. The Ambassador emphasized that those visits are not aimed to replace the negotiating processes anyhow.

It is believed that the Azeri Ambassador’s residence was attacked by coation, as the Ambassador’s initiative to pay a visit to Nagorno-Karabakh is not welcome by Azeri who say that the visit is under Armenians interests.
