    YEREVAN (ARF Press Service)--A delegation representing the Armenian
    Revolutionary Federation attended the Socialist International's
    Committee for the CIS, the Caucasus and the Black Sea, held at the
    United Nations in Geneva on April 16 and 17.

    The Committee reviewed recent developments in the region and efforts
    to consolidate social democracy there, with representatives giving
    brief reports on the situation in their countries. The Committee also
    addressed how to narrow the democratic gap in the countries of the CIS,
    the Caucasus and the Black Sea; how to overcome regional conflicts
    and secure a path to peaceful resolution; as well as strategies for
    strengthening and promoting social democracy in the region.

    The meeting was chaired by Alexandra Dobolyi of the MSzP party in
    Hungary and Mario Nalbandian of the ARF in Armenia.

    Representing the ARF were SI Vice-President Maria Titizian and ARF
    Bureau Political Director Giro Manoyan.

    The Socialist International is the worldwide organization of social
    democratic, socialist and labor parties. It currently brings together
    170 political parties and organizations from over 140 countries from
    all continents.

    The ARF is the only political party in the CIS that has full-member
    status in the SI. The ARF's affiliate organizations are also full
    members of the Socialist International Women and the International
    Union of Socialist Youth.
