Heirs of Armenian Genocide survivors to hold third conference

Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian met Friday with Karen Mikaelian, a member of the committee for organization of congress of heirs of the Armenian Genocide survivors. Two previous forums were held in Yerevan in 1917 and 1918.

Stressing the necessity of elaborating common demands, Mr Mikaelian said the committee has already held several meetings and developed a statement on appointment of plenipotentiaries.

“The Armenian Diaspora should get prepared for the forum. Religious and public organizations should discuss the existing problems,” Minister Oskanian said for his part, the RA MFA press office reported.
