Armenian President Armen Sarkissian characterizes Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan as a “talented and diligent person”.

The president made the comment after an awarding ceremony when reporters asked him whether working with the Prime Minister is easy.

“In Nikol Pashinyan, I discovered for myself a talented, quick-thinking, willing, hard-working man, with whom I have very good professional relations. My impression is – we have bilateral respectful and constructive businesslike relations. I don’t see any problem whatsoever in working with him, on the contrary, I believe that we can work together very good,” Sarkissian said.

“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
