YEREVAN, MAY 30, ARMENPRESS. The visa waiver between Armenia and China will be re-launched starting June 1, the foreign ministry said.

The waiver was suspended when the coronavirus outbreak first began earlier this year.

The foreign ministry called on Armenian nationals to visit the country only in essential cases.

It said that anyone departing for China must file a health certificate and undergo a 14-day quarantine on their own expense in a designated area.

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Anna Naghdalyan explained that Chinese nationals won't immediately be able to travel to Armenia as long as the coronavirus-related travel ban is in force.

“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
