peacefully," Abramyan said. "There are no problems between the Armenian
and the Azerbaijani diasporas."

of Armenians of Russia will actively participate in the parliamentary
elections through the lobbying of the interests of Russian citizens

parties that will take ethnic diversity of Russia into account in
their programmes," Abramyan said.
