Leading wrestler of the Armenian national wrestling team, Greco-Roman style wrestler, Olympic champion Artur Aleksanyan was defeated during the semi-final at the International Traditional Wrestling Championship taking place in Kyiv.

During the competition with his Kyrgyz opponent, Artur Aleksanyan was winning 5-0, but he was defeated 5-7, as reported on the Facebook page of the Wrestling Federation of Armenia.

Karapet Chalyan, who was competing in the 82 kg category during this championship, and Malkhas Amoyan (72 kg category), made it to the final.

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
