Head of the Yerevan Kentron community Gagik Beglaryan and head of
the Central administrative part of Moscow Sergey Boydakov signed an
agreement today.

Moscow is the first city Yerevan has started to cooperate
with. According to the agreement the two cities will cooperate in the
local governing field, culture, sport and ecology fields. Cooperation
started in 2004 when the delegation of the Yerevan municipality went
to Moscow at the invitation of Moscow mayor Yuri Luzhkov. Gagik
Beglaryan was in the delegation too. On his own initiative by the
Armenian project and the financing of the Moscow side the Moscow
park was constructed opposite the Drama Theater. By this agreement
a Yerevanian park will be constructed in Moscow.

“The cooperation of these years yielded good results.

The ratification of this agreement marks the beginning of the new
phase. This year a number of events will be organized, including
housing issues. In autumn days of Yerevan will be organized in
Moscow. They too will have a good effect on our relations”, Sergey
Boydakov said.

At the end of the ceremony the sides exchanged souvenirs in token
of friendship.

“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
