YEREVAN, MAY 10, NOYAN TAPAN. An international conference on the
theme "Caucasus without Conflicts and Terrorism. On the Crossroads
of Civilizations" will take place in Yerevan on May 17-18. The World
Congress of Armenians and the "Dialogue of Civilizations" National
Center are organizers of the event.
Aram Sarksian, the Chairman of the Democratic Party of Armenia,
a Council member of the "Dialogue of Civilizations" National Center
informed about it at the May 10 meeting at the National Press Club. The
goal of the conference is to find common borders for settling problems
existing in Caucasus: "Caucasus is one of the most difficult regions
of the world where a war may start any time.
But we are doomed to live together in this region, and that's why the
sides must listen to and understand positions of each others." It is
envisaged to prepare a "Declaration about Peaceful Caucasus" according
to data of the event. Aram Sarksian informed that representatives
of Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, Iran, Russia which will be represented
at experts' level will participate in the event. Representatives of
Azerbaijan as well were invited to the event but they did not give
agreement yet: according to A.Sarksian, most likely, they are afraid of
problems in their own country. A number of experts from Europe will
also take part in the conference. The "Dialogue of Civilizations"
National Center envisages to organize similar events every year.
