/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian authorities always
support our community in emergency situations,
editor-in-chief of Azdak Beirut-based newspaper Shahan
Kandakharyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

The assistance rendered by the Middle East division of
the Armenian Foreign Ministry is a bright evidence of
this, according to him.

-Armenia’s Ambassador to Lebanon, Vahan
Ter-Ghevondian, who completed his mission in the
country, was the first diplomat to be received by
President-elect Michel Suleiman and decorated with the
supreme order of Lebanon,- he said.

-On May 31, the Armenian newspapers in Lebanon will
publish the announcement of Armenia’s Embassy saying
that all Armenians in Lebanon can address the Embassy
for Armenian citizenship. Receiving the citizenship,
Armenians in Lebanon and other states will be granted
not only moral but also legal assistance,- Mr
Kandakharyan said.
