"I am absolutely against relinquishing to the Azerbaijani side. These lands were conquered by our blood," a famous singer Ruben Hakhverdyan told a press conference in Yerevan today. He said if a war break out in Karabakh, he would have to learn shooting, because he necessarily will take part in it.

"There will be war or not, not Armenia or Azerbaijan would decide, but Russia and the United States," Hakhverdyan said. According to him, Moscow and Washington have already divided everything among themselves, and perhaps even developed a plan to achieve their goals.
