    NO XENOPHOBIA IN ARMENIA

    14.03.2005 05:04

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ `There was no xenophobia in Armenia and will not
    be', Rimma Varzhapetian, the chairperson of the Jewish community of
    Armenia stated. However, in her opinion, there are some forces in the
    republic for which xenophobia is a way of manifesting themselves. In
    her words there are only 5 or 6 persons in Armenia, who are trying to
    create an image on the wave of anti-Semitism. However, according to
    her, if they are anyhow supported by mass media the consequences can
    be rather tragic, Rimma Varzhapetian noted. She also said the Jews of
    Armenia do not face any manifestations of anti-Semitism. In his turn
    Rabbi Burstein stated that the Jewish community did not send any
    document to the US State Department recording of anti-Semitism
    allegedly available in the republic. The round table participants
    consider that the Americans picked out the information from some mass
    media reports in Armenia.
