MOSCOW, May 22 (RIA Novosti) – The speaker of the Armenian parliament
officially tendered his resignation Monday.
Artur Bagdasaryan, the chairman of the Orinats Erkir party, initially
announced his plans to resign May 12 following a decision by the
party’s political council to quit the government’s ruling coalition
due to what the speaker said were differences on political issues
and democracy.
The speaker should officially confirm his move in the next five days
after which he will automatically leave his post.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
