President Serzh Sargsyan on Wednesday, November 30 sent a letter of condolences to his Brazilian colleague Michel Temer over the plane crash near the town of Medellin in Colombia.

The plane crashed in the mountains of Colombia, killing 71 people. Six people miraculously survived the crash Monday night, but the disaster virtually wiped out an up-and-coming Brazilian football team and sent shock waves through the world of football.

At these difficult times for Brazil, Sargsyan expressed condolences and support to Temer, the people of Brazil and families of the victims.

At the same time, according to the President, the very fact that there are survivors, gives strength to move forward.
