/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Today, members of the Armenian National Assembly
attended a ceremony to commemorate the victims of October 27, 1999
terrorist act, the RA NA press office reported.

Opening the ceremony the RA NA Speaker, Mr. Hovik Abrahamyan said,
"Every year on October 27, paying tribute to the victims of the
severe crime of October 27, 1999, we again say our decisive "No"
to terrorism, intolerance and animosity. Though 9 years have passed,
all of us feel the pain that befell us that day. We again say that
such crimes have no limitation period, and we must do everything in
our power to prevent their repetition. Every time gathering at this
memorial stone we should again ensure that our strength is in our
unity, and only together we can build more dignified and prosperous
Armenia, which I am sure, was the dream of Karen Demirchyan, Vazgen
Sargsyan, Yuri Bakhshyan and our other colleagues.

As Speaker of the National Assembly I confidently say that I’ll
do everything possible for consent, tolerance and respect in our
republic. And the most worthy tribute to our dead colleagues is the
implementation of the programs and ideas, which they followed. I
don’t doubt that we shall have the Armenia, we and our deceased
friends dreamt about."

“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
