Yerevan /Mediamax/. ""Heritage" party and its Leader Raffi Hovhannisian
never denied the fact of the Armenian Genocide", Secretary of the
parliamentary faction of the party Stepan Safarian stated in Yerevan
today.

Mediamax reports that, commenting on today’s publication of the
letter of "Heritage" party’s leader to the Turkish President Abdullah
Gul in the Armenian press, Stepan Safarian noted that the phrase
"Great Armenian Dispossession", used in it, "has more meaning than
"Genocide"".

According to Safarian, the word "dispossession" "in the given context
should be interpreted as "deprivation of homeland", which is a
harsher wording".

“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
