During the meeting with Armenian journalists on the occasion of
Armenia’s becoming member of the International Association for Business
and Parliamentarism Deputy Speaker of the European Parliament Edward
Scott McClellan declared he does not see any reason why Armenia should
not become an EU member. He added, “I am open to Armenia’s, as well as
Russia’s membership to the European Union when the proper time comes.”

Edward Scott McClellan coordinates the parliamentary cooperation of
states included in the New Neighbors Program and countries of the
Mediterranean Basin.

Today Armenia became the 17thmember of the International Association
for Business and Parliamentarism. According to member of the
coordinating body Vahan Hovhannisyan, the major aim of the structure is
to match the national legislations of other countries to the European
one. The coordinating council includes Deputies from all groups and
factions of the National Assembly. Members of the coordinating council
have no right to engage in lobbyist activity.

“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
