    Armenia vessel harbors in Cyprus after world round voyage

    LIMASSOL. - It has a symbolic meaning that the Armenia vessel harbors
    in brotherly Cyprus after more than two years' round-the-world voyage,
    Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said in Lomassol, being on working
    visit in Cyprus.

    Armenian and Cyprus Presidents were present at the solemn event on
    Thursday in Limassol. The event was devoted to the round-the-world
    voyage of the vessel. Armenian president made a speech.

    `I am glad to state that the Armenia vessel after a two-year
    round-the-world voyage returned safely to Cyprus. It has a symbolic
    meaning that the vessel harbored in Cyprus. We are relative nations
    both in joy and grief. We condole for the explosion in naval base. Now
    I would like to turn to our navigators. Each of them is a
    strong-willed, dignified, brave and a true compatriot. Each of them
    compiles the picture of the Armenian people, who have overcome many
    difficulties without rebounding.

    I was inspired by the idea of the head of the expedition Zori Balayan.
    The expedition carries the name of Mesrop Mashtots, the creator of the
    Armenian alphabet. It also has a symbolic meaning, which is to
    preserve our language, church, traditions and thus, the identity
    abroad.

    I praise your work. You did a great job by collecting
    historic-cultural materials, making photos of Armenian churches,
    monuments, schools and ancient cemeteries in various Armenian
    communities around the world. The two voyages of the vessels Cilicia
    and Armenia return our nation historic remembrance of previous
    navigations made centuries ago,' the speech states.
