The rumors about closing of the ACNIS are untimely, the head of the
Centre, Manvel Sargsyan, told Arminfo correspondent.
According to Zhamanak daily, ACNIS will be closed in the near future
as there is no financing.
"Our Centre has been working for 20 years. We registered many
achievement over that period of time and it would be wrong to close
it. We really have financial problems, as Trustees Council of our
foundation in the USA has practically stopped financing of the ACNIS
referring to lack of funds. As a result, our experts have already
left the Centre and only technical workers remained", - Sargsyan said.
Sargsyan assures that the founder of the Centre, Raffi Hovannisian,
does his best to preserve the Center and tries to settle the financial
problems. "To be short, at present we are reorganizing ACNIS, which
will undoubtedly go on functioning", - Sargsyan concluded.
ACNIS was founded in 1994.
