YEREVAN, JANUARY 6, ARMENPRESS. Member of the French National Assembly Valérie Boyer made a note on her Facebook page on the occasion of the Feast of Holy Nativity (Christmas celebrated in Armenia), noting that on this day she recalls the Armenians of Artsakh who fell victim to the new genocide.

”On this day of the Armenian Christmas I recall the Armenians of Artsakh, the victims of the new genocide. I am pondering about Father Hovhannes Hovhannisyan and Dadivank. I am thinking about that heritage. I am thinking about the massacres of Christians. Let’s not forget it, condemn and struggle”, she wrote.

“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
