“Although it is perplexing that the parliamentary committee has decided to hold a session amid the situation which is created as a result of the pandemic, even if the government were to extend the state of emergency the Third President of Armenia is ready to visit the committee on April 16th, at 14:00”, Sargsyan’s Office said.

Sargsyan’s Office said that “he doesn’t have any problems in presenting details” of the April War to the committee.

“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
