At the initiative of `Sargis Tkhruni’ student union of the
Social-Democratic Hnchakian Party, representatives of a number of
youth NGOs and youth wings of political parties held an act of protest
in front of the Russian Embassy in Armenia. The latter conveyed
letters to the Russian Embassy, demanding to undertake urgent steps to
prevent the murders of Armenians in Russia by nationalists.

According to the President of the Union Narek Galstyan, they are ready
to struggle for the rights of their compatriots wherever they are `
Russia, Armenia or somewhere else. `Armenians are killed in Russia on
the basis of xenophobia. Those who declare that the crimes are of
common nature play the game of nationalist organizations,’ he said.

Participants of the act of protest urge representatives of all youth
organizations to join them. They are sure that in this case it will be
possible to launch a real struggle against the crimes, which, they are
confident, are the result of ethnic discrimination.
