ARMENIAN AMBASSADOR TO RUSSIA REFUTES ANTI-ARMENIAN MOODS IN RUSSIA
The Armenian Ambassador to Russia, Armen Smbatyan, believes the
violence against Armenians in Russia is not related to anti-Armenian
moods of Russians. `Russia is a big country and such attacks are
common. Some organizations are suffering from xenophobia and
Armenians fall victim to them,' Smbatyan mentioned Saturday. In his
words, the Armenian embassy and the law enforcement officials are very
serious to such incidents and are watchful for their disclosure.
Asked why the prosecutor's office has suspended the case on Vigen
Abrahamiants murder, the ambassador said, `Vigen Abrahamiants case was
never suspended. Recently a person was arrested on the case who
admitted that he has killed Abrahamiants. This man is a student of
police school and is related to skinheads.'
Note: Almost all Russian media told August 22 that the case in Moscow
subway was suspended due to `impossibility to identify the identity of
criminals.' /Panorama.am/
