/PanARMENIAN.Net/ RA President Serzh Sargsyan will attend the return
match between the Armenian and Turkish football teams only in case
the border is open or the sides agree on unblocking Armenia.

"There is little time left till the match. We expect Turkey to take
constructive steps towards normalization of relations. I will accept
the invitation of his Turkish counterpart only if all agreements come
into effect," President Sargsyan said during a joint press conference
with his Serbian counterpart Boris Tadic.

Armenia-Turkey return match is scheduled for October 14, 2009.

“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
