YEREVAN, June 8. /ARKA/. The Vice Speaker of the Euro Parliament
Edward Macmillan Scott welcomed Armenian’s joining the new European
neighborhood policy.

“We welcome Armenia’s joining the new European neighborhood policy,
as well as negotiations over individual plan for Armenia within the
framework of this policy”, Scott told journalists in Yerevan on June 7.

He believes this policy requests individual approach to each country
in the region taking into account cultural and historical features.

“This principle was used in Balkans as well, and I don’t see a reason
why it can’t be used in this region”, Scott finds.

The EP Vice-Speaker is in Yerevan in order to take part in the opening
ceremony of the national office of the International Association of
Business and Parliament.

“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
