/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia must maintain good relations with the
U.S. but must not do it at expense of relations with other states,
specifically with Russia, Ara Abrahamyan, the President of the Union
of Armenians of Russia and World Armenian Congress, told reporters
in Yerevan today.

He remarked that the Armenian organizations in the United States do
not lobby Armenia’s interests properly. "I anchor hopes with formation
of the Ministry of Diaspora Affairs," he said.

Abrahamyan also informed that the UAR and WAC proposed to address the
International Court for recognition of the Armenian Genocide. "The
Ministry of Foreign Affairs is considering the issue," he said.
