718 BARRISTERS WORKING IN ARMENIA

YEREVAN, August 20. /ARKA/. President of the Chamber of Lawyers of
Armenia Ruben Sahakyan says 718 barristers currently work in Armenia
and are all members to the Chamber of Lawyers.

According to Sahakyan, the number of qualified barristers in Armenia is
increasing every day. Last year, 100 people successfully qualification
exams with 70 specialists gaining 90 points out of 100.

However, some barristers are not members to the Chamber of
Lawyers. Sahakyan believes such "specialists" show their "skills"
during civil procedures, when litigants are either low-qualified
lawyers or family friends who cannot protect the rights of their
defendants.

At present, 328 barristers enroll in the Chamber of the Lawyers
of Armenia.

“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
