    Union of Armenians of Israel Successfully Functioning

    28.04.2006 21:13 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Union of Armenians of Israel, which is the
    member of the World Armenian Congress, was registered a year ago in
    Israel, director of the Tel Aviv Institute of Eastern Europe and CIS,
    Knesset member Alexander Tsinker told PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
    According to him, the Union includes the Israeli citizens, natives of
    Armenia. `We have two organizations. One is `Ararat' and the other,
    `Nairi', was formed by the natives of Gyumri. This year the day of
    Holocaust coincided with the Armenian Genocide and on April 24 we
    marked both dates. Recently we organized a concert of Armenian and
    Jewish songs. The organization also brings to Israel books and
    textbooks from Armenia. As a matter of fact the Armenian community in
    Israel is more numerous that the Jewish one in Armenia. Actually we
    have two communities - the church community in Jerusalem and the
    secular community in Tel Aviv and other towns,' Tsinker said.

    He also remarked that the term `Armenian complimentarism' is already
    used in Israel. `We closely examine the principles of the Armenian
    foreign policy. It's interesting and can be useful,' Tsinker said.
