RA FOREIGN MINISTER ON PROGRAM OF ARMENIA-DIASPORA FORUM 2006
On September 5, RA foreign minister Vartan Oskanian met with the leadership of RA National Academy of Science. The participants of the meeting were aimed to discuss the program of Armenia-Diaspora Forum 2006 envisaged for September 18-20. Within the framework of the forum "New Responses to Old Questions. The Armenians in the 21st Century" two-day seminar will be held. Mr. Oskanian informed that it is expected that the issues of the state, the national identity, the business relations between Armenia and Diaspora, the migration issues, as well as the issues of 2020 Diaspora prospects will be discussed.
Mr. Oskanian emphasized the importance of the forum and expressed hope that the present will take active part in the abovementioned activities and the discussions, as well as make suggestions for the settlement of various issues.
In response to the question of Karlen Dallakian about the state evaluation of the activities carried out by the World Armenian Congress from the viewpoint of the relations between Armenia and Diaspora, Mr. Oskanian stated that big sums and efforts have been invested in the successful activities of that organization and there are certain results, thought the organization fails to justify the efforts spent. As an objective reason, he stated that frequently the interests of various communities of Diaspora clash between each other. At the same time he said that The World Armenian Congress is not the only organization that unites Armenia with Diaspora, and the state can’t be prejudiced to such organizations.
As for historian Ashot Melikian’s concern about the approach of RA authorities to the issue of Javakhk, Mr. Oskanian said that they can’t remain indifferent to the given issue, to the fate of the Georgian-Armenians and they take certain steps to improve the situation, though it’s an inner issue of Georgia.
The participants of the meeting also touched upon the tense relations between Antialias and St. Etchmiadzin, the correct choice of the programs broadcasted over RA Public TV’s Pan-Armenian network, as well as the issue of double citizenship. Mr. Oskanian stated that all the abovementioned issues will be included in the agenda of the forum.
