The Embassy of Armenia in Greece said that, as a result of cooperation with the municipalities of Komotini and Ioannina, Komotini’s Peace Square and the building of the Ioannina City Hall were also illuminated in the colors of the Armenian flag on September 29 to mark the occasion.

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
