Strange things are happening in Karabakh after the presidential
election. It became known that Armenia Fund is likely to set up an
office in Stepanakert.
The fund was created 10 years ago and has implemented large-scale
programs in Artsakh but never thought about setting up an office. What
is the reason, and why did the fund suddenly decide to set up an
office in Karabakh after the election of Bako Sahakyan?
Armenia Fund and the government of Karabakh had controversies not
a long time ago. The relationship between the Lincy Foundation
and the Karabakh government were not smooth either. The foundation
refused to cooperate with the Karabakh government despite the immense
potential. Immediately after Bako Sahakyan's election he met with
the vice president of the foundation Harut Sasunyan in Yerevan.
After the Karabakh election the Moscow-based Armenian businessmen have
also become active. In fact, every day we hear news about one Russian
businessman or another supporting the renovation of a hospital,
construction of a house, and so on. Meanwhile, all the Armenians
of Russia did earlier was monuments in their native villages. Now
Ara Abrahamyan, the president of the Union of Armenians of Russia,
says to build a residential area for the army personnel.
Why did the Armenian Diaspora keep away from Karabakh, who impaired
the Diaspora's activities? The next thing could be the visit
of Hilda Choboian who coordinates the Armenian organizations in
Europe. The second congress of the Armenians of Europe opened on
October 15. After the congress the leader of Armenians in Europe
could arrive in Karabakh.
