“The average annual temperature in the Voghji basin has increased by
0.5 degree. We can see in five hydrological observation sites that
a decrease of the natural flow by 30% has been recorded so far,”
said Naira Aslanyan, UNDP Expert on Climate change at “Clean Energy
and Water” project.

She mentioned that the same dynamics was recorded also in the basin
of Meghri with little difference of indicators. According to forecast
scenarios, the climate change will result in further reduction of
the flows of the Meghri and Voghji Rivers.

“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
