Today is the 20th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster.

“Armenpress” was told at the Ukrainian Embassy in Armenia that more
than 145 sq. km. of Ukrainian, Russian and Belarusian territory
was radioactively polluted; over 5 million people suffered from
the disaster, about 5 thousand settlements were subject to nuclide
contamination. 20 years after the disaster a number of issues are
still awaiting settlement.

Ukraine will always remember the courage of more than 3 thousand
Armenians, who did their best to soften the results of the Chernobyl
disaster. Later 400 of these died because of radiation.

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
