Famous French singer Charles Aznavour has been appointed as Armenia’s
ambassador to Switzerland. Mr Aznavour was born in France as the
son of Armenian immigrants. The singer, who is nearly 85 years old,
was granted Armenian citizenship last year. He said he was happy and
honoured to have been appointed ambassador.

Charles Aznavour, sometimes called the French Frank Sinatra, still
performs regularly. He was very successful internationally with
English versions of his songs, including Yesterday When I Was Young,
The Old-fashioned Way and She.

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
