YEREVAN, March 1 (Itar-Tass) — If the opposition continues its
unlawful actions, Armenian President Robert Kocharyan will be prepared
to introduce a state of emergency in order to ensure national security.

The announcement was made by a member of the president’s Security
Council and Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanyan on Saturday.

Acting on instructions from Kocharyan, he held a briefing at the
presidential palace.

Emil Lazarian: “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
