The Daily Star BEIRUT: The Armenian Relief Society delivered its
condolences and a donation at the Japanese Embassy Wednesday for those
who were affected by the earthquake and tsunami that struck northern
Japan in March.

The donation of nearly $24,000 was handed to Japanese Ambassador
Koichi Kawakami by Taline Kelbashian, chair of the Armenian Relief
Cross, on behalf of the Armenian Relief Society, which is dedicated
to serving the humanitarian and cultural needs of the Armenia people.

Since 2000, the Japanese Embassy has granted a total of 20 million yen
to support the medical center of the Armenian Relief Cross in Lebanon
under the Japanese government’s Grassroots Human Security Project.

“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
