ARMENIAN DIASPORA VS BRYZA OR WHO IS TO BE BLAMED FOR ARMENIANS' TROUBLES?

Rahman Hajiyev Armenian Diaspora in the US continues attacks on US
diplomat Matthew Bryza who was nominated by US President Obama for
post of US envoy in Azerbaijan.
The official website of the Armenian National Committee of America
posts a material reflecting "doubts" of US Armenians that this decision
is true.
In addition, the website offers everyone to join the campaign of
protest. For this purpose a user will have to fill in the form and
send it to his senator by fax or e-mail. To substantiate its point,
the committee indicates 2 important aspects, as they say, including
the clash of interests and Bryza's inability to meet the national
priorities of the US foreign policy.
When speaking about the conflict of interests, the committee accentuate
on Bryza's spouse-Turkish in origin Zeyno Baran. To conceal their
hatred in the issue of Baran's origin, the Armenian committee
accentuates on the employer of the diplomat's wife-Hudson Institute.
ANCA says under publicly available information Hudson Institue received
support from such energy companies as ExxonMobile and American Gas
Foundation (Nothing seditious here-ed.)
But the fantasy of the Armenian diaspora has no limits and in this
connection ANCA has appeared to Hudson Institute about whether this
organization received funds from Azerbaijani or Turkish sources. The
absence of any answer to the question has automatically raised doubts
regarding Bryza and Obama's decision (isn't it absurd-ed.).
Then the Armenian committee also provides information about
the conference organized by Hudson Institute and entitled
"Azerbaijan-Turkey-US relations and their role for Eurasia". The
words Turkey and Azerbaijan create not only allergy but also raise
doubts of almost a "mason" plot with Bryza.
Not stopping in their groundless accusations, Armenians also recall the
rumors regarding the personal life of Bryza and his spouse, presenting
unfounded information about so-called financing of diplomat's wedding.
ANCA refers to available information saying Hudson Institute was
supported by such energy companies as ExxonMobile and American Gas
Foundation
As we see, argument on so-called "conflict of interests" is based
only on the sick imagination of some US Armenians and rumors also
spread by unhealthy persons.
Then, they also present the so-called arguments that allegedly
confirm Bryza's incompetence as a diplomat. ANCA is trying to shift
the blame for all failures of US foreign policy in the region on
Bryza. Thus, they accuse him of failure to avert the armed conflict
between Georgia and Russia though he was personally acquainted with
President Saakashvili (?!-ed.).
He is also accused of having stated about the prevailing of
the principle of territorial integrity over the right for
self-determination.
However, here the ANCA leaders are also ignorant in the issues
of international law like the officials of Armenia, in particular,
Shavarsh Kocharyan for whom 1news.az has held a brief literacy campaign
on issues of international law that touched upon this issue too.
Then the Armenian Congress accuses Bryza of saying that it was Armenia
which occupied Azerbaijani lands. It is unclear what is wrong in
Bryza's statement if this thesis was confirmed by the resolutions of
the UN Security Council and General Assembly and other international
organizations. ANCA's dumbness is astonishing.
However, the list of Bryza's "crimes" does not end with this. He is
also accused of "forcing" Armenia to normalizing ties with Turkey,
dismissal of the US ambassador in Yerevan, pressure on Armenia to
force it to make concessions in the Karabakh issue and even reducing
assistance to Karabakh separatists by US.
It is surprising that some diaspora Armenians hampering any initiative
on normalization of relations between the South Caucasus countries
can be so unconstructive and primitive. But another astonishing fact
is that their hatred to Turks and everything related to Turks can
lead them so far... at the same time, the diaspora is not ashamed of
shifting to personal life of the US diplomats.
We have repeatedly written that the diaspora is among the elements
that hamper normalization of relations between independent Armenia
and its neighbors and its overall development.
This example is demonstrative in this sense-the diaspora continues
causing harm to the Armenian state for the sake of its interests and
to harm national interests of the young Armenian state which is on
the verge of institutional collapse.
