Rouhani felicitates Armenian President, PM on Independence Day


TEHRAN, Sep. 22 (MNA) – In separate messages to President and Prime
Minister of Armenia, President Rouhani congratulated Independence Day
of Armenia.

Felicitating the Independence Day, the Iranian President expressed
hope that Tehran-Yerevan relations would further deepen in all fields,
regarding the common cultural and historical bonds between the two
countries.

"I hope that with the positive developments in the new Armenian
government, relations between the two countries further develop," he
wrote.

On September 21, 1991, the Armenian people voted in a referendum to
proclaim independence from the Soviet Union, around one year after
Supreme Council adopted the Declaration of State Sovereignty of
Armenia and established the Republic of Armenia.
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
