Arminfo, Armenia

ArmInfo. To date, not a single Armenian citizen from Turkey has registered with the consulate to return to their homeland. On March 18, Anna Naghdalyan, head of the  press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia, stated  this at a press conference in the press center under the Government  of the Republic of Armenia.

She recalled that there are no diplomatic relations between Armenia  and Turkey, and therefore, there is no consular section. However, she  emphasized that on the part of the Armenian Foreign Ministry, online  platforms were created so that Armenian citizens, including from  Turkey, had the opportunity to send their contact details.

The Armenian Foreign Ministry also emphasized that in the case of  filing applications to the consular departments, the possibilities of  ensuring the return of RA citizens from Turkey will be considered.

“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
