YEREVAN, JUNE 16, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The political
forces of RA National Assembly are deeply anxious about the murders
of Armenians in Russia in the recent period. The head of the RPA,
ARF Dashnaktsutiun, Ardarutiun (Justice) and National Unity factions
informed about it at the June 16 press briefing. In the opinion of
RPA faction head Galust Sahakian, the incidents that happen in RF,
of course, give an occasion for thinking, but not only Armenians, but
foreigners in general are the target of nationalism in this country.
ARFD head Hrayr Karapetian said that the party representatives have
expressed their anxiety during the meeting held recently at the
Embassy of RF in RA. The MP is convinced that the respective Armenian
departments are also anxious about the issue and still have much to
do in this connection. "It is obvious that the incidents that happen
in Russia are in no way connected with the state interests and state
policy of that country," the MP highlighted. According to Ardarutiun
faction head Stepan Demirchian, the formed situation "cannot be
tolerated" and an question about undertaking the respective steps
should be raised before RF authorities. According to National Unity
faction head Artashes Geghamian, the party being deeply anxious about
"the barbaric incidents committed recently in Russia," nevertheless,
has not come up with any "serious" statement. The reason is the
complicated situation the party found itself in: it is difficult to
accuse Russia of murder of three Armenians in the recent period when
at least 1.5 mln Armenians have "run away" to Russia over the recent
years because of the policy carried on by the Armenian authorities
and 2396 Armenians have committed an attempted suicide and 1600 a
suicide over the past 5 years in Armenia.
