According to a local media report, Armenia’s President Armen Sarkissian will pay a courtesy call on US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on June 29 in the State Department in Washington D.C.

ARMENPRESS asked Sarkissian’s Office to confirm the report. “A courtesy call is possible”, the president’s office replied.

RFE/RL’s Armenian service – Azatutyun – reported citing Reuters that Armenian President Armen Sarkissian will have a meeting with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Washington D.C.

The Armenian President is in the US to take part in the annual Folklife Festival of the Smithsonian Institution, which will feature Armenian cultural events.

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
