    The national congress of the Crimean Armenian Society (CAS) the decided
    to create a regional national and cultural autonomy in the Crimea.

    "Regional ethnic and cultural autonomy according to acts of the
    Russian Federation will be registered on December 13 in the Ministry of
    Justice," the head of the CAS, Vagarshak Melkonyan, told RIA Novosti.

    Melkonyan said that as a part of the new association there will
    be 17 local national and cultural autonomies. Such a structure,
    Melkonyan believes, will allow Armenians to apply for financing from
    the republican and state budget for programs preserving their culture,
    national language, uniqueness and historical heritage.
