MINORITIES FEEL AT HOME IN ARMENIA, MINORITY HEAD SAYS

`There are no minorities in Armenia,’ Rima Varjapetyan, head of Jewish
community in Armenia told Panorama.am. In her words, all issues
connected with national minorities are tackled in Armenia. `If there
are acute problems, they are solved in time and objectively,’ she
said. `Single cases may step out but they are based not on national
identification but on daily life,’ the Jewish community head said
referring to the murder of K. Avdalyan, yezdi by national, saying the
murder was committed not because of nationality.

“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
