YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 18, ARMENPRESS. Speaker of Parliament Ararat Mirzoyan requires one more surgery for the injuries he suffered when he was attacked outside parliament on November 10.

Healthcare Minister Arsen Torosyan told ARMENPRESS that Speaker Mirzoyan will fully recover after the surgery.

“I visited Ararat Mirzoyan yesterday. Overall he feels well, but he will undergo another small surgery, in order to fully recover,” Torosyan said.

Protesters angry over the terms of the Karabakh armistice attacked Mirzoyan’s vehicle outside parliament, dragged him out and battered him unconscious. He was hospitalized and underwent an emergency surgery.

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
