MINSK, 10 October (BelTA) - Belarus, during its out-of-turn
chairmanship in the CIS, continued playing an important role in the
strengthening of cooperation between the CIS member states, Armenia
President Serzh Sargsyan said at the CIS Heads of State Council
meeting in Minsk on 10 October, BelTA has learned.
The Armenian President emphasized the importance of the address in
connection with the 70th anniversary of the Victory in the Great
Patriotic War. "Bloody lessons of the two world wars of the 20th
century should be remembered by the future generations as the lessons
of heroism of our peoples. The events planned to celebrate the day
should underline the importance of counteracting the attempts to
revise the history," he said.
The President of Armenia believes it is vital to bring up the young
generation in the spirit of tolerance and interethnic concord. He
condemned the bombing of one of the temples of the Armenian Apostolic
Church by the Islamic State. Such things cannot fit in the philosophy
of many religions, including Islam, Serzh Sargsyan noted.
He believes that cooperation in the CIS should be aimed at preventing
possible conflicts and regulating the current ones by peaceful methods.
