YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 9, NOYAN TAPAN. Nissan Exterra car of Ara
Saghatelian, owner of the newspaper "My Right" and panorama.am
website, was burned on February 8 at about 8:15 p.m. Speaking about
the details of this incident, A. Saghatelian said: "The car was in
the editorial office’s yard. In the evening, I uasually come to the
office to familiarize myself with the work done, give advice and take
some coordinating actions. About 6-7 minutes after entering the
office, I heard the sound of my car’s alarm. I went out and saw my car
burning. I took off my jacket and attempted to put out the fire, at
the same time shouting to neighbors to bring water. At that moment I
noticed a bottle with gasoline on the car roof. Later I found another
two bottles near the car." A. Saghatelain does not suspect
anyone. "I cannot tell whether the incident has a relation to my media
oulets or not. I have no personal enemies," he noted. At the same time
he said that they work "in a normal way and do not take rude steps,
thinking that speech freedom has its reasonable limits and presupposes
social responsibility." An investigation was initiated in connection
with the case.

“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
