/PanARMENIAN.Net/ As reported earlier, ethnic Armenian candidates were
included in election lists of various parties at regional elections in
Belgium. In Jette Brussels district, where Armenians compactly live,
Melik Melikyan was nominated from the Liberal Party, while Krikor
Kaspar represented socialists. As the Armenian community of Brussels
told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, none of Armenian candidates won
the elections. As for ethnic Turk candidates, they won in regions,
where the Turkish population forms the majority.

“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
