    ARMENIAN RAMKAVAR AZATAKAN PARTY LEAVES WORLD ARMENIAN CONGRESS

    Regnum, Russia
    Nov 21 2006

    One of founders of the World Armenian Congress (WAC) Armenian Ramkavar
    Azatakan Party (ARAP) announced about its leaving the abovementioned
    organization. According to a party statement released on November
    20, initially the ARAP enthusiastically appreciated prospect of
    establishing such organization.

    According to the statement, it became disappointed soon with chaotic
    and irresponsible functioning of the WAC. In particular, leadership of
    the ARAP repeatedly requested leadership of the WAC to submit a report
    on its functioning. It has not received yet such report; it is said
    in the statement. In that connection, the ARAP central governing body
    stated that it did not account for the WAC functioning, as well as for
    functioning and publications of the Azg newspaper which was handed over
    to another owner against the party's wish and without its agreement
    whereas all party efforts to change the false order remained fruitless.

    It is worth stressing; the WAC was founded in 2003 when parliamentary
    elections were conducted in Armenia. Brother of the WAC Chairman and
    Russian Armenian Union (RAU) Chairman Ara Abramyan Gagik Abramyan was
    nominated according to the ARAP party lists; however, the ARAP did not
    manage to overcome the 5% barrier. Gagik Abramyan stated recently that
    he was going to participate in parliamentary elections again; however,
    he gave it to understand that he was not going to cooperate with the
    ARAP. In his turn, Ara Abramyan stated o November 20 that importance of
    political sympathies of the RAU should not be overestimated. "However,
    at present, we need to familiarize ourselves with election programs
    of Armenian political parties," the RAU chairman stated adding that
    decision on contributing to any political party in Armenia might be
    made in collective way during discussions in frameworks of the RAU
    and the WAC.
