The crimes against Armenians in Russia since Soviet times are
unchanged, declared RF Embassy Advisor to Armenia Victor Krivopuskov
adding that "death of every Armenian lacerates his heart."

Krivopuskov reckons that the information on Armenians’ murders in
Russia builds up conjunctural and negative opinion in Armenia. He
considers, instead of cooperation with Russian mass media, Armenian
press "floods the news on a regular murder without seeing into the
matter".

Besides, the law enforcement agencies often slow in providing the
information on impulses, identity and nationality of the criminal.

Russian diplomat assumes that to some extent Armenian Diaspora in
Russia is guilty of such state of affairs, as Armenian culture is
advocated ineffectively. Krivopuskov said, that "Armenian events were
inaccessible for Russians for a good while."

According to Krivopuskov, 70% of the crimes in Russia are committed
on community level, not ethnic and only 30% — by Russians.

“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
