YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 18, ARMENPRESS: ANCA Chairman Ken Hachikian is
traveling to Armenia for high level consultations in Yerevan with
officials of the U.S., Armenian, and Nagorno Karabakh governments, as
well as for in-depth discussions with a broad range of international
stakeholders in the Armenian Cause.
"Armenpress" was informed , that Hachikian looks forward to bringing
the ANCA's contribution to the strengthening of consensus around shared
national aims, and, in particular, to helping foster an environment
of growing trust and increased cooperation on the challenges facing
the Armenian nation.
Hachikian will address a broad range of issues. Among these will
be a just resolution of the Armenian Genocide, a secure future for
the Nagorno Karabakh Republic, and, of course, a more robust U.S.-
Armenia bilateral relationship - particularly in terms of trade and
investment. Priority areas are expected to include the following: In
terms of a just resolution of the Armenian Genocide, he will continue
to seek an exit strategy out of the failed Turkey-Armenia Protocols
that will both mitigate the ongoing harm of these reckless accords and
also, on the eve of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide,
remove a critical barrier to a just and enduring international
resolution of this crime against all humanity.
In voicing support for ongoing OSCE efforts to keep the Karabakh
peace, he will also raise concerns about the specifics of the flawed
"Madrid Principles." These principles call on the Armenian side to
make up-front and irrevocable strategic concessions in return for
Ilham Aliyev's vague promises about the future status of Artsakh. If
put into practice, they would not lead to the peace they promise,
but only to Azerbaijan's and Turkey's seeking to force even more
dangerous Armenian concessions.
Recognizing the increasingly powerful connections between Armenia's
progress in domestic development for all of her citizens and her
regional security, he will help promote greater homeland-diaspora
engagement toward a fair, prosperous and democratic Armenia that
turns the dangerous tide of out-migration and offers a sustainable
future of hope and opportunity to all her sons and daughters.
