corresponding sum will be allocated from the budget for the retraining
of ten thousand teachers, as for the duration, it will last three,
four or more months instead of the current one or two weeks.

departments open in pedagogical higher educational instituions for

experience and beginners receive equal salary and with the investment

“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
