The Russian market is the most promising for Armenian producers,
Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan said in Moscow on Tuesday.

He said the Armenia pavilion at the All-Russia Exhibition Center had
helped to increase bilateral trade by $5 million.

“Energetic efforts are being taken to upgrade trade and economic
cooperation to the level of political partnership,” Margaryan said.

The Armenian premier had negotiations with his Russian counterpart
Mikhail Fradkov.

“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
