Samvel Karapetyan voted in the 3/27 polling station of Yerevan for a consolidated and united Armenia. The prime ministerial candidate of the “Strong Armenia” bloc announced this in a conversation with journalists.

After leaving the polling station, Samvel Karapetyan was greeted by loud applause and shouts from his supporters. He expressed confidence that he will win these elections and will work in Armenia for 10 years. He said this in response to the Russian media’s question whether he is going to return to Russia.

“I will not return anywhere. I will work in Armenia for 10 years. Today you will see what our belief is based on. I voted for united, united, for… I don’t want to say that other word, it’s a very dangerous word, but at least we all must unite our people and our country, we must unite the diaspora with our homeland. If there is such an opportunity, I will be very happy,” said Samvel Karapetyan.

“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
