    Armenian Participant Sarkisian: Turkey Is Much Different Compared To
    What I Heard


    EDIRNE - Young women from 22 countries are rehearsing and getting
    ready to compete in the ''First Edirne International Peace &
    Friendship Beauty Contest'' which will take place on September 16th.

    Culture & Art Consultant of the city of Edirne Serdar Iyiiz has
    informed AA that his city will be sending messages of peace to the
    world on September 16th.

    ''China is participating in a Turkish beauty contest for the first
    time in history. At a time when relations between Turkey and Armenia
    are cold, we have an Armenian contender Suzanna Sarkisian in the
    contest. Edine Demirovic of Bosnia-Herzegovina and Jelena Pejic of
    Serbia-Montenegro have become good friends during the rehearsals,''
    noted Iyiiz.

    Armenian Sarkisian commented that she found Turkey much different
    compared to what she had heard in Armenia. ''I am in Turkey for the
    first time. I had heard that all women in Turkey wear headscarves and
    use black veils. However, I found both women and men in Turkey to be
    very modern,'' expressed Sarkisian.
