YEREVAN, AUGUST 2, ARMENPRESS. Armenia has applied to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) with a request to indicate interim measures against Azerbaijan to protect the rights of Rashid Beglaryan, the Office of the Representative of Armenia for International Legal Matters said in a statement on August 2.

Rashid Beglaryan, a resident of Nagorno-Karabakh, got lost and accidentally crossed into Azeri-controlled territory on Tuesday and was arrested by Azerbaijani authorities.

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
