Avag Harutyunyan: Last time, we were ‘clean’ in 1913, when there was no sense to falsify (video)

According to the head of the National Wine Center Avag Harutyunyan, after the velvet revolution, corruption and the number of organizations in the spheres of alcoholic drinks, wine, brandy, whiskey, beer production and export have drastically decreased.

“The market has been cleaned, there is no the basis that would allow producing and exporting fake cognac. For the first time in the last 100 years, we have the opportunity to fully abandon fake products. Last time, we were ‘clean’ in 1913, when there was no sense to falsify. Then there was a bright time during the Dashnaktsutyun leadership, and after World War II, the ups and downs, which ended one or two months ago,” said Avag Harutyunyan.

“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
