WHO NEEDS FINANCING?

The President of Equatorial Guinea has already made friends with the head of
the Union of Armenians of Russia Ara Abrahamyan and will soon arrive in
Moscow as his personal guest.

This is the last thing Ara Abrahamyan is doing in return to the setting free
of the Armenian pilots imprisoned in Guinea. Before that an investment of 2
million USD was made for the construction of the Guinea irrigation system.

In the margins of the program `Days of the Union of Armenians of Russia in
Armenia and Artsakh’ a delegation of 500 people has arrived in Yerevan –
writers, scientists, pupils, etc. The Union of Armenians of Russia is
celebrating its 5th anniversary this year. In the press conference rendered
today Ara Abrahamyan said that as a non-governmental organization «they did
what they could for the past 5 years».

According to him, they gave the Armenians of Russia the most important thing
– hope, alongside with financial aid and advice. And in Armenia they
realized several programs.

Asked the question of Ara Abrahamyan is going to actively participate in the
political life in Armenia he said, «I do not have the right, besides, there
are too many people involved in politics in Armenia». Nevertheless, he did
not exclude the possibility of indirect participation, that is – financing
of a political power in case of need.

“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
