    ACNIS RELEASES THE THIRD ISSUE OF PUBLIC POLICY JOURNAL:
    `THE CHANGING WORLD: VIEWPOINTS FROM YEREVAN'


    Yerevan--The Armenian Center for National and International Studies
    (ACNIS) today released the third issue of ACNIS quarterly public
    policy publication, entitled `The Changing World: Viewpoints from
    Yerevan,' during a special presentation-seminar held at the Center's
    office. The meeting brought together the quarterly's contributors,
    other leading analysts, policy specialists, and members of the press.

    ACNIS director of research Manvel Sargsyan welcomed the audience with
    opening remarks and conveyed hope that the volume will serve the needs
    of political experts, policy commentators and the public at large by
    offering a broad overview on a comprehensive set of critical issues,
    challenges and opportunities--both domestic and foreign--entwined with
    Armenia's policy imperatives, options and interests. It was also hoped
    that the publication would assist the decision-makers in Armenia and
    help define Armenia's foreign and domestic policy issues in a broad
    and farsighted way.

    The ceremony featured brief presentations from the volume authors Saro
    Saroyan, Vardan Jaloyan, Armine Ghazaryan, Edgar Vardanyan, and Arman
    Yeghiazaryan who provided brief summaries of key points underlying
    their works and flashed out the major avenues for further research and
    inquiry in other aspects of Armenia's socio-political milieu. The
    addresses were followed by a series of questions and answers, and
    featured a lively exchange with the audience.

    The presentation was concluded by the closing remarks of Raffi K.
    Hovannisian, Armenia's first minister of foreign affairs and ACNIS
    founder, who emphasized the important tradition of nonpartisan
    research that ACNIS has constantly demonstrated through its
    progressive performance by serving as a useful venue and a
    professional forum for building knowledge, where ideas can be openly
    generated, shaped and shared. The progressive activity of the Center
    and the wealth of knowledge it has contributed to the research
    community of Armenia and beyond reveal that the activity of the Center
    is respected and required, he concluded.
