Armenian divers record unprecedented win in European Championship

The pair earned 369.84 points and won the bronze medal for synchronized 10m platform. This is the first time divers from the independent Republic of Armenia take a medal in seniors’ competition.

The gold medalists are the Russian divers with 423.12 points, who are followed by the British divers with 399.90 points.

“This victory is the result of hard work that our athletes and coach Hrachya Chandiryan did. I congratulate us all with this achievement,” President of Diving Federation of Armenia Gabriel Ghazaryan posted on his Facebook page.

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
