On the 18th of April, 2010, by the order of the RA Minister of Defence
the soldiers of the National Army did cleaning and improvement work
of the monuments and other historical places around Armenia, devoted
to the International Day for Preserving Monuments and Sites. This
cleaning and improvement work was also aimed at introducing the
solders to the historical-cultural values of Armenia.

In the morning of 18 April, in order to watch the cleaning and
improvement work by the soldiers, the RA Minister of Defence Seyran
Ohanyan visited the area around the Statue of Vardan Mamikonyan in
"Circular Park" of Yerevan. Here the students of the RA MoD Military
Aviation institute after Marshal Armenak Khanperyants worked with
zeal and pride. They followed the principle that architectural
monuments ought to be preserved with care and be passed to the coming
generations.

“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
