    ARMENIAN DIASPORA IN UKRAINE TO BACK PM VIKTOR YANUKOVICH

    Today, Azerbaijan
    Sept 25 2006

    Members of Armenian community in Ukraine held a meeting in Kyiv
    organized by the Union of Ukrainian Armenians.

    The meeting participants strongly criticized President Viktor
    Yushchenko's policy to expand integration into NATO, APA reports.

    Never Mkhitaryan, who is involved in Ukrainian political life,
    said Armenians should make their efforts to support Prime Minister
    Viktor Yanukovich. He said there will be a chance during the expected
    political crisis in Ukraine to remove "orange" supporters from power,
    and Armenians should take an active part in this process.

    Mkhitaryan brought attention to Yanukovich's special attitude to
    Armenia, his conferment "Restoration of Armenia" medal and finally,
    his being supported by Russia.

    The similar meeting was held in Simferopol by Armenian community of the
    Crimea. The participants stressed that Ukrainian "orange" government
    could not achieve progress in the country and also failed to care about
    Armenians. They arrived at a common conclusion that the authorities
    failing to be ally of Russia cannot meet Armenians' demands.

    The community chief Frunze Mardoyan expressed dissatisfaction with
    Yushshenko's support for Azerbaijan reminding Armenian parliament's
    vice-speaker Vagan Ovannisyan's "Ukraine was presented with the Crimea
    by Khrushov as Azerbaijan was presented with Nakhchivan and Garabagh
    by Stalin. Yushchenko might turn out to consider even some parts of
    Kazakhstan and Iran as Azerbaijani territories".
