Azg/am
19 Oct 04

Armen Qyurkchian, representative of Canada, wrote a letter to the
foreign minister of Armenia Vartan Oskanian on behalf of the central
administrationof the World Armenian Organization. He drew minister’s
attention to the fact that the authorities of Canada displayed wisdom
and foresight and didn’tgive in to the USA’s pressure to support in
the Iraqi war thus averting the danger of terrorism. The author of the
letter notes with pain that in case Armenia sends a group in Iraq,
security not only of the Diaspora but also of Armenia will be put
under danger.

Armen Qyurkchian expresses hope that Armenian authorities will break
their promises to America and will put nation’s interests first.
