Russia and Armenia have decided to cerate a joint commission to
explore uranium fields in Armenia.

Uranium fields were discovered in Armenia in Soviet times. The
commission will have to examine them and find out whether mining will
be economically justified, presidential spokesman Viktor Sogomonyan
said on Monday.

“I can say quite certainly that no uranium enrichment will be
carried out in Armenia,” he said.

“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
