15:13 * 20.09.14
The situation of our compatriots in Syria has always been a key issue
on the Government's agenda, says Armenia's foreign minister.
In his speech at the 5th Armenia-Diaspora Conference, Edward
Nalbandian spoke particularly of the government's attention to the
security of Syrian-Armenians and the preservation of the Armenian
cultural heritage in the country.
"Our activities focus on the developments in the regions that are in
our direct neighborhood. I am aware that you have discussed the
situation of the Syrian-Armenians who face a plight in the wake of the
current crisis," Armenpress reports him as saying.
Addressing the Islamic State's violence against religious and ethnic
minorities in Syria, Nalbandian said that Armenia's Foreign Ministry
has raised the question abroad and in international organizations in
an effort to call for an international attention to the problem.
"With that purpose, the UN Council for Human Rights elaborated and
adopted a corresponding resolution on September 1 with our
participation," Armenia's top diplomat added.
