Armenian Democratic Party spearhead, Aram Sargsian, has opened
National Center for A Dialogue of Civilizations NGO that will hold a
congress at the Armenia-Marriott Hotel on May 17-18 in concert with
the World Armenian Congress. In Mr. Sargsian’s words, the congress,
comprising experts from Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh, Georgia, Turkey,
Russia and EU states, will discuss issues of regional cooperation
and economic issues. Azerbaijanis refused to arrive in Armenia.

“This is the first regional structure of its kind, and the upcoming
congress ‘Caucasus Axis of Confrontations’ is its first step. All
participating experts are well aware of the issues facing the Caucasus
and know what should be our approaches to overcome the problems
inherited from the past. The main purpose is to find a way out from
the current deadlock,” Aram Sargsian said.
