    YEREVAN. - A group of Armenia's historians, men and women of the arts
    and letters, writers, and philologists expressed a concern over the
    National Academy of Sciences' Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute
    Director Hayk Demoyan's Russian-language thesis, and his overall
    activities, Haykakan Zhamanak daily writes.

    `They gathered yesterday [Thursday] at a cultural center. The
    objective was to discuss the mistakes in Demoyan's thesis.

    Literary critic, translator Albert Musheghyan was invited to the
    meeting as speaker. And he presented the linguistic and ideological
    distortions [in Demoyan's thesis].

    As a result [of the gathering], it was decided to send an open letter
    to the administration of the National Academy of Sciences, and demand
    the dismissal of the Genocide Museum-Institute Director for his
    cynicism as well as for his serious distortions and disgraceful
    guidance manifested in the thesis,' Haykakan Zhamanak writes.
