    Signing Protocols after Pre-Signing Them Is Mere Formality: Miatsum
    Member Sefilian

    National Initiative Miatsum members gathered near Myasnikian's
    monument before heading for the embassies of OSCE Minsk Group co-chair
    countries and handing over their statement addressed to the presidents
    of those countries.

    The statement, which they submitted, read:

    `On behalf of the Armenian people living in Armenia and Diaspora,
    Miatsum National Initiative, proceeding by the unrelenting will to
    recover long-lasting peace, stability and rule of international law in
    the region, states that US President Barack Obama, Russian Federation
    President Dmitry Medvedev and France's President Nicolas Sarkozy, who
    officially accepted the Madrind Principles' Armenian-Turkish fake
    `reconciliation,' are initiating a mutually agreed policy to provoke
    the next genocide of the Armenian nation and to ruin the Armenian
    statehood. Miatsum National Initiative calls for vigilance and
    firmness on the part of the US, Russian and French presidents to
    refrain from attempts to provoke a new genocide of Armenians, to
    resign from guilty assaults that result in doubtful benefits of a
    current geopolitical nature, to undertake steps to establish real
    peace in the region and to comprehensively re-establish the rights of
    the Republic of Armenia violated by the genocide.'

    `The Protocols are already signed. The re-signing of them is a mere
    formality. The main risk will be when the parliaments ratify the
    Protocols. I am sure that our history will neither start nor end with
    October 13. This process will not end quickly. Therefore, one
    shouldn't get disappointed. Today we fight in the field of advocacy,
    we voice our thoughts publicly, but I am sure that the moment will
    come when we'll be able to raise our entire nation and prevent the
    anti-Armenian process, which, in essence is the result of our inner
    state of affairs,' Jirair Sefilian stated.

    Miatsum member, film director Tigran Khzmalian, in speaking with
    journalists, said that it pains him that Serzh Sargsyan is subject to
    so much outside oppression.

    `In our opinion, the Armenian president must be liable only for his
    people's oppression,' Khzmalian said.
