an event took place dedicated to the beginning of actions that are
supposed by the "International Compact with Iraq". Based on provisions
of the document the strategy of Iraq's national development is being
put for practical realization.
The "International Compact with Iraq" indicates moves, which
the Iraqi government with the assistance and participation of the
international community must undertake in order to establish security
and social-economic progress in the country.
Representatives of 70 countries participated in the event. Foreign
Minister Vartan Oskanian headed the Armenian delegation at the
conference.
The RA FM said, participation in assisting the Iraqi government and
people is very honorable. "Armenian made her modest contribution
to establishing stability and security in Iraq. The existence of a
small Armenian community in Iraq had its influence, since Armenians
have always enjoyed hospitality of the Iraqi people and the whole
Arab world and in connection with this we have certain obligations,"
Vartan Oskanian underlined.
The RA FM also noted the meeting is being held in a crucial moment
for Iraq, when a greater role plays the international community
in country's life and its stability issues. Vartan Oskanian said
"International Compact with Iraq" is a national document and its
successful realization is determined by three circumstances. "The first
is ethnic and inter-religious dialog, without which it is impossible
to reach stability in the country. The second important circumstance
is inclusion of neighbor countries, which have certain influence on
the situation in Iraq. I hope they will contribute their mite to
this process. And third is strengthening of the Iraqi government,
which according to the document aims at changing the country and
moving forward. The international community ought to help Iraq in
hard times for that country," Vartan Oskanian underscored, the RA
MFA Press Office reports.
