YEREVAN, October 16. /ARKA/. The potential of the Armenian communities
abroad should be utilized to a broader extent for economic and
scientific development of Armenia, the President of the World
Armenian Congress (WAC) and the Union of Armenians of Russia (UAR)
Ara Abrahamian told journalists after his meeting in Armenia’s National
Academy of Sciences. Currently only 1% of that potential or even less
is used, he said.

According to Abrahamian, the capabilities of the Armenian diaspora
can be used for development of Armenia’s National Academy of Sciences
"The country and the diaspora attach great importance to Armenian
intelligentsia and Armenia’s National Academy of Sciences. Armenians
of Russia are proud that they are remarkable among other nations for
their intellectual potential," he said. In commenting the hard status
of the Armenian intelligentsia Abrahamian said that the responsibility
for that is with the society, authorities and the intelligentsia
themselves.

Emil Lazarian: “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
