    YEREVAN, AUGUST 1, NOYAN TAPAN. Ara Abrahamian, the Chairman of
    the Union of Armenians in Russia and the World Armenian Congress,
    at organizers' invitation took part in the meeting organized in
    the evening of July 28 in Glendale Town Library's hall by the
    Armenian-American Diaspora Center and the Armenian Intellectual
    Forum of Los Angeles jointly with the Armenian community of Los
    Angeles. As Noyan Tapan correspondent was informed by Armen Zatikian,
    a representative of the Armenian-American Diaspora Center, A.

    Abrahamian gave a positive answer to the proposal of one of those
    present to assist with founding an Armenian center in Los Angeles. The
    Chairman of the Union of Armenians in Russia also said that it is
    time that Russian Armenian and American Armenian communities cooperate
    for the sake of Armenia and Diaspora.

    According to A. Zatikian, such meetings are held in Glendale Town
    Library periodically. According to him, the main subject of Ara
    Abrahamian's speeches during the meeting and by the ARTN Armenian TV
    channel of Los Angeles on July 27 was that such a mighty community
    as the American Armenian one living in such a mighty country as the
    Unites States cannot fail to have a communal structure, which will
    represent the whole potential of American Armenians and will act in
    the interests of both the community and the homeland.

    The representative of the Armenian-American Diaspora Center added
    that A. Abrahamian's speech was very inspiring, especially as being
    well-aware of the case of creation of communal structures, being an
    experienced person, the Chairman of the Union of Armenians in Russia
    stressed for several times that today, under new demands (he also means
    the Ministry of Diaspora to be created in Armenia, RA authorities'
    attaching much importance to the Diaspora), the Diaspora should
    also become a factor and have a full-value structure representing,
    consolidating Armenians of Diaspora. A. Abrahamian expressed readiness
    to support that structure by all means and to cooperate with it.

    According to A. Zatikian, doctor Edward Azizian, a representative
    of the Armenian Intellectual Forum of Los Angeles, made a greeting
    speech at the July 28 meeting. He introduced Ara Abrahamian to those
    present. A. Zatikian stressed at the meeting that today, when RA
    Ministry of Diaspora is created, "we all understand that Armenia begins
    to attach more importance to Diaspora's existence. Time dictates us
    that we have no right to lose a moment." A. Zatikian stressed that
    the bridge of all-Armenian cooperation being created between the
    largest Armenian communities of Europe, the U.S., and Russia on the
    initiative of the conference of the Forum of Armenian Associations
    of Europe (FAAE) held in late May in Bratislava will anew activize
    Armenia-Diaspora relations.

    According to A. Zatikian, the hall was crowded during the meeting,
    there were inspiring exclamations, as well as short speeches and
    other proposals were made.
