    MOSCOW. - Duty of every citizen of Russia of the Armenian descent is
    to sign under the call for the Russian State Duma to adopt a bill
    criminalizing denial of Nazi crimes and the Armenian Genocide in
    1915-22 in Turkey, head of Hamshen Armenian scientific information
    -cultural center Artavazd Tulumjyan said.

    `We had to raise the issue sooner or later,' he told Yerkramas
    Russia-based Armenian newspaper. `We, as one of the hugest Armenian
    communities in the world, cannot stay aside. Since the process started
    and increases, I believe it is the duty of every Armenian in Russia to
    sign under the call.'

    To note, the action was initiated by the Union of Armenians in Sochi
    and supported by Assyrians, Kazaks and Greeks in Russia.
