    ArmInfo. The Trustee of the John Smith Memorial Trust, pro-Armenian
    politician, Baron John Herbert McCluskey has been appointed Adviser to
    the Prime Minister of Great Britain.

    Hayk Martirosyan, the adviser to the Chairman of the Armenian Supreme
    Court, a member of the John Smith Trust, told ArmInfo correspondent
    that Lord McCluskey is going to visit Armenia in 2008. The visit will
    be paid within the frames of agreement on exchange of experience and
    cooperation in the judicial system reached between Armenia and Great
    Britain in 2007. A former solicitor general in Harold Wilson's
    government, Lord McCluskey conducted the loudest criminal cases. To
    note, Lord McCluskey was the counsel of Paul McCartney, one of the
    members of the Beatles rock band. In 1974-1979 Lord McCluskey with his
    close friend, Labor Leader John Smith elaborated and navigated the
    legislation of Scotland's autonomy through the parliament. The
    legislation became a cornerstone in Great Britain's history. In the
    recent years Lord McCluskey headed the John Smith Memorial Trust, which
    is one of the best known and rating organizations in the international
    arena for disseminating democratic values. Within the frames of the
    Trust's activity the Lord has visited Armenia practically every year.
