peoples - two far neighbors' took place in Yerevan today.
Director of Oriental Studies institute under Armenian National Academy

of fight for historical justice, the man who was fighting and was
killed for his ideals.
Armenian Diaspora Minister Hranush Hakopyan said that Dink was wishing
of peace and stability in the region and recognition of the Armenian
genocide.
The director of the 'Caucasus' Institute, Aleksandr Iskandaryan,
said that there is the danger that Hrant Dink may become a unique
'memorial'. 'His book should be read and understood', - Iskandaryan
said.
As the head of the Heritage party parliamentary faction Stepan Safaryan

between the past and present of Turkey. 'Dink was a peace fighter,
and his phenomenon was above-national', - Safaryan said.
To recall, editor-in-chief of the Armenian-Turkish 'Agos' newspaper,
Hrant Dink, was killed on 19 January 2007 in front of his office by
