YEREVAN. – Armenia is concerned over new hotbed of tension in the region, Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said when asked about Turkey’s actions in Syria.

“There is a concern about a new hotbed in the region, which will lead to human casualties. Civilians are injured, and  Syrian Armenians are among them. A very serious cause for concern,” the minister said.

According to him, the success achieved in the fight against the ISIS and other terrorist groups inspired hope that peace and stability would be established in Syria. Meanwhile, the emergence of a new hotbed of tension can become an obstacle to stabilization.

“We are supportive of controversial issues to be resolved through negotiations and by using international platforms,” he added. 

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
