Azerbaijan's propaganda "attacks" mount hysteria and xenophobia, creating obstacles in the negotiation process, Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said.

"It's not true that Armenia doesn't react to Baku's statements. As a matter of fact, Azerbaijan often seeks ways to respond to us. However, it's important to distinguish propaganda, anti-propaganda and a country's official stand," Minister Nalbandian said when answering a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter's question during a news conference in Yerevan on Friday.

"Unlike Baku, official Yerevan prefers deeds to words," he emphasized.
