Yerevan, 7 June: Armenia thinks it is necessary to develop regional
cooperation without waiting for the settlement of all the conflicts
because cooperation itself can promote the settlement of conflicts.

Armenian President Robert Kocharyan said this in his message to the
participants in the 27th plenary session of the Parliamentary Assembly
of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation Organization in Yerevan.

Armenia attaches special significance to cooperation in the spheres of
energy, transport, education and science. “Every country [in the
region] can fully develop its potential only if there is intensive
regional cooperation,” the president’s message said.

“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
