YEREVAN, JUNE 20, ARMENPRESS. The parliamentary select committee probing the causes and course of the 2020 Second Karabakh War is holding its first open session on June 20. All previous sessions where high-ranking former and present government officials and military commanders testified proceeded behind closed doors.

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan will testify at the session today.

Pashinyan earlier said he’d want his testimony to be broadcast live at an open session. 

Both opposition factions are boycotting the session.

“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
