/PanARMENIAN.Net/ September 26 – on the birthday of Gurgen Margarian
– the ceremony in commemoration of the Armenian officer will take
place in Yerablur Pantheon in Yerevan. To remind, lieutenant Gurgen
Margarian, born in 1978, who was attending English courses organized
within the frames of Partnership for Peace NATO Program in Budapest,
was brutally killed with an axe on February 19. The murderer, Azeri
senior lieutenant Ramil Safarov, who was also participating in the
course, had been arrested by Hungarian Police.

Emil Lazarian: “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
