An Armenian parliamentary delegation left for Syria on Tuesday to
address the situation surrounding the Armenian-populated community
of Kesab outside Latakia, which had recently been attacked by gunmen
from Turkey.
Armenian parliamentary speaker Hovik Abrahamyan said a group of six
parliamentarians would be staying for some time in Latakia, where
most of the ethnic Armenians from Kesab had been evacuated.
"Upon returning home, the deputies will inform the Armenian parliament
of the situation existing there," Abrahamyan said.
The Armenian Foreign Ministry had earlier expressed concern about
the situation in Kesab, which is close to the Turkish border.
Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan also expressed his concerns about
the incident in Kesab while paying a working visit to the Netherlands
on March 24.
