YOUTH GOES ON HUNGER STRIKE

-Taking into account the process of the presidential
elections in Armenia and the post elections
conditions, in particular March 1 events and the
arrestment of Yerkrapah (defenders of land)
representatives and citizens for their political views
make us doubt for our future as those who fought for
today’s independence are imprisoned hence we join our
elder friends,- is mentioned in the message of
Yerkrapah young representatives from Gyumri.

They mentioned that they have applied to various
institutions and have taken correspondent measures but
if this last attempt is ignored the young
representatives of the union from Gyumri will go on
hunger strike leaving the responsibility on the state
officials.

“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
