/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The participants of the Armenia-Diaspora Third Forum
will give an assessment to 15 years of Armenia’s independence and
elaborate a strategy of counteracting new challenges," the Armenian
Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian said in Yerevan today. In his words,
some 2000 delegates representing the Armenian Diaspora will arrive
to take part in the forum. "We have announced that the reports of
the participants should maintain these two priority items. Presently
out nation is experiencing a very important period. It has formed
politically and the Diaspora wishes to make a contribution to the
development of the economy," Oskanian said.
Noting the necessity of coordination of activities between Armenia
and the Armenian communities throughout the globe Vartan Oskanian said
that the World Armenian Congress (WAC) headed by Ara Abrahamyan works
in the interests of the Armenianhood. "The Diaspora is huge and its
unification is a hard work.
Thus the main goal of the WAC has not been achieved yet. Nevertheless
the Armenian government respects the WAC activities and Ara Abramanyan
was invited to the forum as a rapporteur," he said.
