Teaching us - Armenian - to be tolerant is at least immoral,
information security experts said during a meeting with reporters
today. Experts Tigran Kocharyan and Vahram Marutyan referred to
the initiative of Georgy Vanyan, Chairman of the Caucasus Center
of Peace-Making Initiatives, to hold an Azerbaijani Film Festival
in Gyumri.
"Two years after his initiatives failed in Yerevan and Vanadzor,
Vanyan again tries to hold an Azerbaijani Film Festival in Gyumri,"
Tigran Kocharyan said.
According to him, the Chairman of the Caucasus Center of Peace-Making
Initiatives has turned the topic of Armenian-Azerbaijani dialogue
into a matter of bargaining and makes money on it. It's the task of
any of us not to allow this.
Georgy Vanyan says his initiative is aimed at propagating tolerance
and establishing dialogue between the two countries. The experts
are not against the ideas of tolerance and dialogue, but they are
assured that there is greater need for it in Azerbaijan, where the
anti-Armenian hysteria has exceeded all limits.
Tigran Kocharyan considers that the conduct of such a festival in
Armenia is possible in one case, i.e. if Azerbaijan holds a festival of
Armenian films. "Dialogue means that both parties should demonstrate
willingness, while we do not see it on the part of Azerbaijan,"
he said.
Tigran Kocharayan refuted the information that the conduct of the
festival was financed by the US and British Embassies in Armenia.
