BRUSSELES-The European Armenian Federation for Justice and Democracy
(EAFJD) announced that its long-time president, Hilda Tchoboian,
has been elected a member of the Regional Council of Rhone-Alpes in
France. In order to assume her new responsibilities, Tchoboian has
resigned from her duties as President of the EAFJD.
Effective immediately, Kaspar Karampetian has assumed the Presidency
of the EAFJD Brussels Office. Karampetian is a past chairman of the
Armenian National Committee of Greece and a member of the Board of
Directors of the EAFJD.
For more than three decades, Tchoboian has been on the forefront
of the struggle for the Armenian Cause in its multiple facets: The
recognition of the Armenian Genocide and the question of reparations,
the promotion of the rights of European Armenians, the strengthening
of the independent Republic of Armenia, the affirmation of the right
to self determination of Karabakh, the protection of the rights of
the Armenians in Javakhk, the human and minority rights violations
in Turkey and the political mobilization of European citizens of
Armenian descent.
During the last decade, Tchoboian served as EAFJD President. Together
with her staff and colleagues, she worked tirelessly and had major
accomplishments in all of the spheres mentioned above. She also helped
establish the EAFJD as the premier voice of Armenians in Europe,
thus laying a strong foundation for its future growth.
The EAFJD Board wished Tchoboian success in her new endeavors.
