Talks over the opening of Upper Lars checkpoint were held in Armenia
under Yerevan’s mediation and today, when it opened we can say this,

"We can state that Upper Lars is a remarkable achievement primarily
for Georgia, Russia and definitely Armenia," he declared.

Chairman of the Union of Manufacturers and Businessmen of Armenia
Arsen Ghazaryan noted that checkpoint opening will reduce period
of cargo traffic from and to Armenia by half, as well as decrease

“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
