takes this decision, I will run," Sarkisyan, who heads the Republican
Party of Armenia, said in the Armenian National Assembly on Wednesday.

The preliminary results of the May 12 elections in the Armenian

“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
