Unfortunately, the history of the Armenian people is full of tragic chapters. The second President of Armenia, Robert Kocharyan, noted this in a statement.
"We [Armenians] have survived many disasters. We have often been on the brink of life and death, but our best national qualities—wisdom, courage, patience and diligence—have always helped us to reborn. I am confident we can do it again. Let's welcome the new year—2021—with faith in such a future," Kocharyan’s statement also reads.
