YEREVAN. - The comments, according to which Armenian National
Assembly (NA) Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan has mocked the memory of the
Genocide victims, are unfounded.
Gohar Poghosyan, Head of the NA Information and Public Relations
Department, told the aforesaid to Armenian News-NEWS.am.
She noted that Abrahamyan had danced at Armenia Square in Uruguayan
capital city Montevideo, and this square is devoted to Armenia and it
also symbolizes Armenian-Uruguayan friendship.
`The monument devoted to the Genocide is in another place. Festive
music was played there [at Armenia Square], and therefore the memorial
dedicated to the Genocide victims could not have been in that square,'
Poghosyan specifically said.
To note, an Armenian parliamentary delegation, led by Hovik
Abrahamyan, arrived in Uruguay on an official visit. Following the
formal talks, the delegation visited Armenia Square and placed a
wreath to the Armenian Genocide Memorial. Abrahamyan also danced at
the square, RFE/RL Armenian service had reported earlier.
