and without bloodshed,’ spokesman for the Armenian foreign ministry
Gamlet Gasparian said in a statement circulated on Thursday.

`The outcome of the face-off is yet another important step in the
consolidation of stability and peace in Georgia and in the entire
South Caucasus,’ the Ministry spokesman said.

Gasparian hailed `the consistent and decisive policy of the Georgian
top authorities, whose efforts made it possible to clear that serious
barrier.’

“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
