YEREVAN, October 16. /ARKA/. Building stable democratic Armenia
with liberal economy and efficient army is the only effective way
of displaying Armenia's potential, the Prime-Minister of Armenia
Serge Sargsian said at his meeting with the delegation of the World
Armenian Congress (WAC) and the Union of Armenians of Russia (UAR)
headed by the President of WAC and the President of UAR Ara Abrahamian.
Sargsian pointed out that Armenia is not rich in natural resources and
the country's wealth is its educated, hard-working and enterprising
people, the Press Service of Armenia's Government reported.
Sargsian welcomed the delegations and said that the country closely
follows the patriotic activities of WAC and UAR.
According to him, the programs of the homeland and the diaspora aimed
at building a strong state and strong diaspora are concordant. The
cooperation to achieve these targets is effective, but the potential of
the Armenian communities abroad is not utilized to the full, he said.
Among the planned measures Sargsian pointed out intensifying
the state initiatives in Armenia and abroad to preserve Armenian
identity. According to Sargsian, this will not only become an incentive
to philanthropists, but will also increase the confidence toward the
Armenian state among entrepreneurs.
The President of UAR Ara Abrahamian thanked the Prime-Minister for
appreciation and spoke in favor of more efficient use of the potential
of Armenian communities abroad. He introduced a number of programs in
the fields of agriculture, housing construction, healthcare, education,
science and culture implemented by the Union of Armenians of Russia
in Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh in the last years.
The leaders of the Armenian communities expressed their support to
the further development of relations between Armenia and the diaspora
and provided proposals on cooperation.
The Vice-Chairman of the Union of Armenians of Georgia, member of
Bureau of WAC General Council Van Bayburdian expressed his gratitude
to the Government of Armenia for assistance given to Javakhk and its
cultural and educational institutions in particular.
The Vice-Chairman of "Ramkavar-Azatakan" party, member of WAC General
Council Ervand Azatian welcomed the idea of setting a governmental
structure on diaspora issues.
