Yerevan. 8 September: Armenian-Turkish protocols "poses threat
to Armenia’s national and state interests", Hrant Margaryan, a
representative of the Bureau of the [opposition] Armenian Revolutionary
Federation-Dashnaktsutyun [ARFD], said in Yerevan today.

He said that "the ratification of these documents with their existing
form is fraught with a national divide, the Armenian people should
say "No" to these protocols and the authorities of the country should
accept expression of the people’s will".

"Otherwise, the authorities will be doomed to suicide, and we will have
to pay for this mistake for ten years", the ARFD representative said.

Margaryan noted that Turkey unilaterally closed the border with
Armenia in 1993 and "now should unblock it in the same fashion".

“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
