Armenia should attempt to have the U.S. State Department push Turkey
to open the Kars-Gyumri railroad and prevent the construction of
Kars-Akhalkalaki not to allow weakening of the geopolitical position
of Armenia, said the Russian political scientist Andranik Mihranyan
May 19 at the Hayeli Club. He said there was a similar effort by the
Turkish-Armenian conciliation committee.

“At least when the Turkish-Armenian conciliation committee existed,
I know that the U.S. State Department pushed Turkey, offering the
argument that it would be a shorter route to supply ammunition to
the American forces deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Unfortunately, this question is presently deadlocked, and generally
the Turkish-Armenian question is deadlocked,” said Andranik Mihranyan.

“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
