PanARMENIAN.Net – ARF Dashnaktsutyun parliamentary group leader summed
up the outcomes of 2011, attaching special importance to the problem
of mounting poverty in the country.

`It is impossible to comment on accomplishments amid growing poverty,’
Vahan Hovhannisyan said.

Dwelling on foreign policy issues, Mr. Hovhannisyan noted French and
Lebanese presidents’ visits to Armenia among major political
achievements of the year.

He further noted that Armenia has not withdrawn its signature from
Armenian-Turkish protocols yet, which continues to negatively affect
the country.

“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
