YEREVAN, June 8. /ARKA/. The RA National Assembly revised Monday the
RA Law on the Value Added Tax and amended the RA Customs Code.

By the amended law, Armenian clergymen abroad are exempted from VAT
when importing their personal property to Armenia.

Thus, clergymen will share the same customs facilities with diplomats
and military attaches.

“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
