The delegation then met with Levon Ayvazyan, the Head of the Department of Defense Policy and International Cooperation of the ministry, and also visited the National Defense Research University.

A wide range of issues relating to regional security, Armenia’s defense policy, military reforms, military education and military science were discussed during the meetings.

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
