RA PRIME MINISTER TIGRAN SARGSYAN ATTENDED THE MINISTRY OF DIASPORA-HOSTED FIRST ALL-ARMENIAN FORUM OF LAWYERS IN YEREVAN, SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 19-20
Saturday, 19 September 2009
RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan attended the Ministry of Diaspora-hosted
first all-Armenian forum of lawyers in Yerevan, scheduled for September
19-20 and referred to as "The Armenian law-making thought and the
threats posed by the 21st century." The forum seeks to mobilize the
aggregate potential of Armenian lawyers toward the strengthening of the
Armenian statehood, formulating and discussing scientific - educational
problems of nationwide importance, as well as founding an all-Armenian
association of lawyers.
Welcoming those present, the Prime Minister spoke about the need for
mobilizing the Armenian lawyers' potential and meeting the challenges
inherent in the modern world: "The modern world is a world of keen
competition not only between the States, but also between civilizations,
therefore both the philosophers and the lawyers should look at ways of
revealing the Armenian civilization and identifying its development trends.
The President of the Republic has come up with daring initiatives
in order to address the threats of nationwide concern. I mean the
settlement of Armenian-Turkish relations, which calls for adequate
political will, wisdom and cohesion. Here, too, our lawyers are in
for serious challenges. I am convinced that this forum will help
us formulate our tasks in greater detail. The problem of having
most accurate legal definitions comes to the forefront with the
international recognition of the Armenian Genocide, and we have to
build up corresponding capacity in this area.
Over 60 Armenian lawyers from different countries are participating
in the forum
