Six people that were caught by border guards on Tuesday when trying to cross the Armenian-Azerbaijani border are citizens of Bangladesh, acting Minister of defense Vigen Sargsyan told reporters today at a press conference.

“The members of the group that was attempting to illegally cross the Armenian-Azerbaijani state borders are citizens of Bangladesh. The border guards handed them over to the National Security Service,” the acting minister added.

Reports about the detention of six foreigners were released yesterday by the spokesperson of the defense ministry Artsrun Hovhannisyan.

“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
