Former US Ambassador To Korea Does Not Understand Motives Of Decisio

FORMER US AMBASSADOR TO KOREA DOES NOT UNDERSTAND MOTIVES OF DECISIONS OF US STATE DEPARTMENT

Yerevan, May 31. ArmInfo. In a talk with an ArmInfo correspodent former
US Ambassador to Korea Stephen Bosworth said that he did not often
understand the motives of the decisions of the US State Department
when he was in office. He said this in response to ArmInfo’s request
to comment on the reports about the recall of US Ambassador to Armenia
John Evans.

To remind, many believe that the key reason for Evans’ recall was
his last year’s public recognition of the Armenian Genocide during
a meeting with US Armenians.

Bosworth said that the Armenian Genocide recogniton is a fundamental
issue. Nevertheless, one should not forget that Armenia has many
other interests and concerns that require close attention and urgent
solution.

“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
