All medals of the Pan-Armenian Games are won by participants from Armenia, a member of the World Committee of the Executive Committee of the Pan-Armenian Games Sepu Baghdoyan told reporters.

Earlier, participants of the 7th Pan-Armenian Games on Tuesday visited the Armenian Genocide memorial complex in Yerevan.

“We have been participating in the Games since 2003. We are glad that the opening ceremony of the Games was held in Artsakh. It was important for us that Artsakh also join.

The participants from Armenia and Artsakh are professionals, we have no chance to win. Something needs to be done so that the Diaspora Armenians could win,” he said.

“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
