    THE CAUSE OF THE CLASH WAS NOT ETHNIC

    The editorial office of our newspaper received a news release from the
    press service of the Union of Armenians of Russia which we post fully.

    "The Russian and foreign media report that on June 2, 2008 an incident
    happened on Stavropolski Street in Moscow. They report that the fight
    involved "Armenians and Slavic people".

    According to the information of the Union of Armenians of Russia, the
    incident took place but those involved in it were representatives of
    different nations. This information was confirmed by the press service
    of the Police of Moscow. They informed that they did not release
    information about the incident and the reports which underline the
    ethnic motive of the skirmish are not confirmed by the information
    at hand.

    The fight took place between groups who met to settle scores. The
    participants were of different nationalities, but at the moment there
    are no grounds to insist that the clash had an ethnic cause.

    Amazingly, some media are inclined to underline the ethnic motive of
    crimes and incidents even in cases when there is no reason for that.
