Armenia’s permanent representative to the UN, Ambassador Karen Nazaryan addressed the UN General Assembly with a report on Armenia’s contribution to the fight against fascism.

“600 thousand Armenians (when the population of the Armenian SSR totaled less than 1.5 million) fought in the front from 1941 to 1945,” Ambassador Nazaryan said. “Armenia knows the price of victory and peace and calls to derive lessons from the past and double efforts aimed at peaceful resolution of conflicts.”
