F riday, 10 July 2009

RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan attended the opening of the
Pan-Armenian Olympiad on Armenian Language and Literature and the
Contest of Armenology, organized at two years’ interval by the
Ministry of Education and Science to foster knowledge on Armenian
language, literature, history and culture, as well as to encourage the
application of uniform standards across the educational establishments
of the Diaspora and provide methodological assistance.

In his address to more than 130 contestants, the Prime Minister said
that already traditional, this event is the best opportunity for
deepening knowledge on Armenian language, literature, history and
culture as Armenian education both at homeland and in the Diaspora
is the pledge preservation of the Armenian identity and, therefore,
a key priority for State policy.

“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
