YEREVAN, APRIL 24, ARMENPRESS: `The Armenian Genocide is a great
sorrow for the whole humanity. No justification may be found for these
atrocities,’ Russian ambassador to Armenia Vyacheslav Kovalenko said
after paying tribute to the memory of the innocent victims of the
Armenian Genocide.

He said the tragedy has left a great psychological pain not only on
the Armenian nation, but on the whole humanity. `I am sure that the
whole international community understands and accepts the mass
killings of Armenians as Genocide which is a crime against humanity.
The international community must exert efforts to prevent such
tragedies, and I am sure that clear steps are being undertaken in that
direction. Russia shares the pain and grief of the Armenian people,
recognizing the Armenian Genocide,’ the Russian ambassador said.

More than 20 countries, different international organizations,
including the European Parliament have recognized and condemned the

Emil Lazarian: “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
