YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 6, NOYAN TAPAN. The organizers of world wrestling
championships to be held this year in Baku do not guarantee the
security of Armenian sportsmen. This was announced at the February 5
enlarged sitting of Executive Committee of Wrestling Armenian National
Federation. So, for Armenian wrestlers the hope for getting the right
to take part in Beijing-2008 is Europe championship to be held in
2008 and another two rating tournaments.

By the Executive Committee’s decision, for their bad behaviour in
the days of RA championship wrestlers Artak Haroutiunian and Gegham
Babakhanian have been disqualified until September.

“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
