Armenians of Kesab are true heroes: Parliament delegation in Latakia

Deputy of Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) faction Arman Sahakian, who along with other members of the Armenian parliament’s delegation has arrived in Latakia, wrote about his first impressions on his Facebook page:

“I am now in Latakia’s Armenian church where the Armenian families evacuated from Kesab found shelter. I can only say that the men of Kesab are true heroes,” the deputy noted.

Another member of the parliamentary delegation, Heritage faction deputy Tevan Poghosian wrote on Facebook: “The Armenians of Kesab are heroes. True heroes. I am proud of such compatriots. We must stand by their side”.

We would remind you that a group of deputies of Armenia’s National Assembly left for Syria yesterday in connection with the events in Armenian-populated town of Kesab in northwestern Syria. The delegation is composed of HHK faction members Ms. Naira Karapetian, Samvel Farmanian, Levon Martirosian and Arman Sahakian, independent deputy Edmon Marukian, and Tevan Poghosian of Heritage faction.
