    >From l to r: Koko Topalian, Bedig Kazandjian, Dr. Viken Hovsepian,
    Ashot Ghoulian, Arch. Martirossian and Dr. Viken Yacoubian

    GLENDALE-A delegation of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation Western
    US Central Committee on Saturday met with visiting Artsakh Parliament
    Speaker Ashot Ghoulian to discuss issues of mutual interest and
    further cooperation.

    The two sides discussed several important topics, among them the
    imperative to assist the Syrian-Armenian community as they fall victim
    to the growing unrest in that country. The sides expressed that as
    a sign of national unity, the plight of Syrian-Armenians must become
    a focal point.

    Ghoulian briefed the ARF leaders about the recent visit by Uruguay
    Parliament Speaker and his delegation, pointing out the positive
    implications the visit will have on the effort to garner international
    recognition of Artsakh (the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic).

    The Artsakh Parliament Speaker also praised the recent passage of
    legislation in Rhode Island that recognized Artsakh's independence
    and right to self-determination, saying that similar efforts in other
    states would be beneficial to Artsakh's recognition.

    Ghoulian also praised the good and positive working relations with
    the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Representation in Washington and close
    ties with its representative Robert Avetisyan.

    The two sides also discussed projects and plans for resettlement of
    Artsakh's border regions, as well as the upcoming 25th anniversary
    of the Artsakh Liberation Movement.

    Joining Ghoulian at the meeting were Avetisyan and the Primate of
    the Artsakh Diocese Archbishop Parkev Martirossian.

    The ARF delegation was headed by chairman Dr. Viken Hovsepian and CC
    members Dr. Viken Yacoubian, Bedig Kazandjian and Koko Topalian.
