TBILISI, APRIL 13, ARMENPRESS: A 41 year-old ethnic Armenian, Amiran
Mkhitarian, a resident of Georgia’s capital city Tbilisi, killed
himself yesterday, Rustavi-2 TV channel reported. It said abject
poverty was the reason that drove the man to committing a suicide.

The TV said the man killed himself after failing to find money to
buy febrifuge medicine for his five year child.

Neighbors said the family fell into poverty last year after the man
was sacked. He left behind his wife and three children.

“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
