/PanARMENIAN.Net/ On the initiative of the Institute of Oriental
Studies at the RA National Academy of Sciences (NAC) the four-volumed
book `History of Neighboring Countries of Armenia’ will be ready to be
published by 2009, Ruben Safrastyan, Professor, Director of the
Institute of Oriental Studies at the RA National Academy of Sciences
reported to PanARMENIAN.Net. The initiative is financed by the RA
Government, and the work on the book has been conducted since 2007.

`I would like to mention that there has been no such book written in
Armenia. `History of Neighboring Countries of Armenia’ depicts the
history of Georgia, Iran, Russia, Turkey, and the Arab world from the
earliest times up to the present day. The book lays special emphasis
on the role the Armenian community had in the development process of
these countries,’ Safrastyan mentioned.

“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
