A number of Armenian NGOs held today an act of protest in front of
the Russian Embassy in Armenia. They submitted a statement to the
Ambassador, expressing their concern with the recent racist expressions
in Russia. Yevgeni Baghdasaryan, Hayk Dolukhanyan, Harutyun Galstyan,
Robert Feroyan, Vigen Abrahamyants and Arthur Sardaryan - these are
the names of our compatriots killed in Moscow in 2006 by nationalist
groupings.
"Impermissible things occur in Russia," said Arsen Kharatyan,
members of the initiative group of the "For the sake of scientific
development" NGO.
Head of the Helsinki Committee Avetik Ishkhanyan is confident that
the events would not go this way if Armenian authorities demonstrated
a strict position.
Participants of the action rallied from the Russian Embassy to
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They urged the Russian and local
authorities to address the phenomenon, which is getting more and
more threatening.
