The Armenian Police recently conducted an investigation in which
it determined that the Armenian flag placed at the Armavir regional
administration’s Metsamor division has faded in color, is worn out
and is generally in poor condition.

According to the official website of the police, it was not “noticed
in time” by the head of the division and the flag was replaced only
after media reports decried its condition.

“For not properly conducting his official duties, not ensuring the
proper appearance of the flag of Republic of Armenia, which is a
symbol of the state, upon orders by RA Police Chief Vladimir Gasparyan,
head of Metsamor division, Police Lieutenant Colonel Marat Poghosyan
has been subject to a disciplinary penalty,” reads the statement.

“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
