“He went to great lengths to make our troubled world a better and safer environment, while his wisdom and political courage helped him achieve success in this regard.”

“I have bright memories of our personal meetings in Texas, London and elsewhere,” Sarkissian said adding that Armenians too remember the 41st President of the United States.

Bush died at age 94 in Houston.
