YEREVAN. - I worked with Libya in the past eight years and invested
over $1 billion into this country's economy, Chairman Ara Abrahamyan
of the Union of Armenians of Russia stated during a press conference
on Friday, in Armenia's capital city Yerevan.
Abrahamyan noted that he had good relations with Libya's political
elite and with Muammar Gaddafi himself, and had even invited him
to Russia.
In Ara Abrahamyan's words, Gaddafi was familiar with Armenia and was
aware of the Armenians' problems. "I had even asked Armenia's Foreign
Minister to invite Gaddafi to Yerevan, but the events unrolled.
Gaddafi lost a country, [and] I [lost] money. I was a friend of those
people. I'm still their friends, and I hope to finish the activities
I started in Libya. I hope to get back the money that was invested
in Libya and which is frozen, now," Abrahamyan said.
Also, he denied the rumors about his bankruptcy.
