    Recently, Social Democrat Hunchakian Central Committee member Diego
    Karamanoukian along with SDHP Uruguay Executive Committee Chairman
    Louis Aprazyan met with Member of Uruguay Senate Rafael Michelini in
    the General Assembly of Uruguay. The discussion at the meeting focused
    around Michelini's proposed legislation to include in the State budget
    expenditures for the establishment of an Armenian Genocide museum,
    which shall operate in a state-allocated building and have a Genocide
    Research Center, Massis Post informs.

    The draft legislation aims to publicize and inform patrons on the
    horrible crime of genocide committed against the Armenian people in
    1915. The museum will also contain historical and cultural information
    on the Armenian community of Uruguay.

    Senator Michelini updated the SDHP leadership that all of the political
    factions within the Parliament have given their preliminary consent
    to the draft legislation, paving the way for a vote in the General
    Assembly soon.

    The Hunchakian representatives expressed the Party's appreciation as
    well as continued unconditional support for the Senators endeavors
    towards the Armenian Cause.
