At the August 6 sitting, the Armenian government took a decision on
construction of the North-South Road Corridor.

RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan stated that the decision launches
a great road construction project whose cost may be up to 1.5 billion
dollars, according to estimates of the Asian Bank. He said that a bid
for the first stage of construction work has already been submitted
to the Asian Bank.

"This may amount to 700 million dollars. The start of the indicated
work will be announced by this decision," T. Sargsyan said, pointing
out that the North-South Highway will be in line with the best
international standards.

“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
