Armenia’s Mihran Arutyunyan wins silver at Rio Olympics

Armenian Greco-Roman wrestler Mihran Arutyunyan lost to Davor Stefanek of Serbia in men’s Greco-Roman 66 kg final and claimed a silver medal at Rio Olympics.

Arutyunyan had earlier beaten Rasul Chunayev of Azerbaijan in the semifinal.

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
