The Secretary General of the Council of Europe arrived in Armenia on an official visit on June 16-17.

On June 17 she is scheduled to meet with Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan. Within the framework of the visit, meetings with the President, the Prime Minister of Armenia, the Catholicos of All Armenians, the Vice President of the National Assembly of Armenia and the Minister of Justice are planned.

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
