Armenia –

The about 300 sheep which Azerbaijanis had make off with six months ago from Surik Matevosyan, a shepherd from Tegh village of Armenia’s Syunik Province, have not yet been returned, and the Armenian government will compensate 70% of the damage. Tegh prefect Davit Ghulunts told about this to Armenian News-NEWS.am.

"Seventy percent of the damage will be compensated, it will be about 10 million drams; that is, they will give money for 280 sheep," he said.

The aforementioned shepherd is still engaged in cattle breeding. According to the village head, if there is compensation, the shepherd will increase the number of small cattle again.

Ghulunts noted that the situation in Tegh is calm, the villagers continue to do their agricultural work, are engaged in cattle breeding, and there is no emigration from the village at the moment.
Surik Matevosyan, a 53-year-old shepherd from Tegh village, and his about 300 sheep were abducted by Azerbaijanis on January 13. A day later—and as a result of negotiations—Matevosyan was returned to Russian peacekeepers. But his sheep still remain with the Azerbaijanis.

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
