YEREVAN, AUGUST 14, NOYAN TAPAN. The Armenian National Congress
(ANC) is concerned about the situation in neighboring Georgia and the
possible undesirable political, social and humanitarian consequences
(for Armenia) of the current developments in the region, coordinator of
the ANC Center Levon Zurabian stated at the August 14 press conference.
During the press conference, a statement of ANC was read, in which the
Congress expresses its perplexity at the passive position of Armenian
authorities on the issue of the strained situation in Georgia. The
statement contains a call for the de facto Armenian authorities to
take a number of active steps, in particular, to express officially
condolence to all the conflict sides on their casualties, announce
a willingness to provide humanitarian aid to those who suffered as a
result of military operations, to organize visits of representatives
of the respective Armenian departments to Moscow and Tbilisi with
the aim of ensuring regular supply of Armenia, etc.
As for the statement of deputy chairman of the ruling Republican Party
of Armenia (RPA) Galust Sahakian that in case of an attack on Armenia,
Serzh Sargsyan would have interrupted his vacation in Olympic Beijing,
L. Zurabian said: "I am glad that at least in case of an attack on
Armenia, Serzh Sargsyan would return to the country".
