The Educated Media Foundation temporarily discontinued its activities.

On 18 April, 2007, officers of the Department of Economic Security of
the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia carried out a seizure of
financial documents and electronic devices, the computer servers, over
a period of 11 hours in the offices of the Educated Media Foundation,
a non-governmental organization and the legal successor of Internews
Russia.

The raid was carried out in connection with the criminal charges
brought against Foundation President Manana Aslamazyan, who in January
2007 while going through customs after a private trip to Paris did
not fill out a declaration form for 9,550 Euros and 5,130 Rubles
(legally it is possible to bring $10,000 into the country without a
declaration form).

Thousands of media representatives requested Vladimir Putin, the
President of the Russian Federation, to see to the matter and cease
the pursuit of Manana Aslamazyan.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
