The Armenia U18 men’s basketball team suffered a painful defeat in the first game of the European Championship Division B underway in Andorra, the National Olympic Committee reported.

In the first game of the group stage Armenia’s opponent was Malta’s team. The team led by Areg Vatyan lost 81:82. Today, the Armenia team will compete with the Albania team, on July 30 with Gibraltar and on July 31 with San Marino.

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
