Armenian President Armen Sarkissian, who met with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Washington D.C. on June 29, left a note in the State Department’s guest book at the end of the visit.

“It’s great to be back at the State Department and have now my first meeting with the Secretary of State”, the Armenian President wrote.

During the meeting with Mike Pompeo, President Sarkissian said Armenia attaches importance to the consistent development of the Armenian-American partnership and presented to the Secretary of State “new Armenia’s” readiness to continue strengthening the relations with the United States.

“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
