    31.01.2007 17:30 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ A protest action against killings of Armenians in
    Russia was held in front of the Russian Embassy January 31. Some 20
    people, the representatives of Sargis Tkhruni youth union, Hnchakyan
    social-democratic party and the youth wing of National
    Self-Determination union took part in the action, The picket
    participants read a statement that says in part, `Several years ago
    fascist and chauvinistic organizations activated in Russia and as
    result of `Russia for Russians' slogan several dozens of Armenians
    have already fallen victims to skinheads.

    Under such circumstances Russia -Armenia's strategic partner -tries to
    represent these murders as an everyday phenomenon avoiding to mention
    national discrimination and xenophobia. We call on these `strategic
    partners' to be more consistent and struggle against such phenomena.'
    The letter was dropped in the mailbox for the Russia diplomatic
    mission in Yerevan, reports IA Regnum.
