unity, proved that Armenia and Diaspora are joint, together, function,
and there was a moment when during the semi-final and final, the whole
nation, become a man, were watching with bated breath, without
gossiping, without abusing, without slandering, and everybody's heart
was beating harmonously with Andre's heart," H.Hakobian said. On
behalf of the National Assembly, Andre was given parliament's named
watch, and Armen Martirosian, the author of song performed at the
festival and Ara Torosian (Murzik) who instrumented the work were
given named pens. Andre confessed that the most inspiring and, at the
same time, the most obliging thing during the festival days was
Armenians' unity, and that his greatest task was to represent Armenia
honorably and to make our small country recognizable for the world in
what he and the group assisting him had a success. After few months
hard work, Andre is going to leave for rest for ten days. By the way,
as A.Martirosian informed, the lowest point for passing from
semi-final to final was 70, but Andre had 150 points, and the fact
that Armenian representative's passing the next stage was stated at
the end was just a result of sortition.
