YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 21, ARMENPRESS. The City Council of Saint-Étienne, France, has called on the French authorities to immediately recognize the independence of the Republic of Artsakh, the Armenian Embassy in France reports.

In its adopted decision the City Council calls on the French government to act decisively, use all the diplomatic channels for finding a stable and peaceful solution through stage-by-stage negotiations, by guaranteeing the security of the peaceful population and rejecting any form of military solution.

The City Council has also made a decision to provide 30,000 Euros to the Armenian Fund of France aimed at assisting the civilian population affected from the recent war in Artsakh.

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
