Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Arman Kirakosyan told Mediamax agency
today that there is no question of sending Armenian peacekeepers to
Afghanistan is not on the agenda.

The Deputy Foreign Minister said this, commenting on the statement
of the representative of NATO Press Centre that during the sitting
in Brussels in 26+1 format on April 4 the Ambassadors of NATO
member states welcomed the willingness of the Armenian side to send
peacekeepers to Afghanistan.

"Armenia considers possible various ways of cooperation with the
international community in post-conflict rehabilitation in Afghanistan,
but the question is not about sending Armenian peacekeeping forces to
the country. Armenia may retrain medical specialists of Afghanistan
in its higher educational establishments or detach several Armenian
Officers to work in the headquarters of the coalition forces," said
Arman Kirakosyan.

“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
