    YOUTH ACTIVISTS KEEP BACKING SEFILYAN'S CITIZENSHIP BID

    Tert.am
    28.07.11

    As part of their efforts to back the ex-commander of Shushi battalion,
    Zhirayr Sefilyan's bid for Armenian citizenship, the activists of
    the Armenian youth union Hayazn are organizing a meeting with him
    on Friday.

    The activists will discuss all their steps implemented so far. They
    will also hold a question and answer session with Sefilyan. The
    participants will invest their best efforts to encourage the hero
    of Karabakh (Artsakh) war to address the Armenian authorities once
    again in an attempt of being granted the citizenship of his homeland.

    A petition launched ahead of Sefilyan's 44th birth anniversary
    attracted 13,000 signatures earlier this year. The union subsequently
    held a procession to the presidential office to submit the signatures
    with an enclosed letter to President Serzh Sargsyan. In its response to
    the activists however, the presidential administration said citizenship
    procedures require applying to the Passport and Visa Department of
    the Police.
