    OBAMA VICTORY WON'T AFFECT U.S. POLICY TOWARD ARMENIA

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenians are interested in Barack Obama's statements
    on the Armenian Genocide recognition, although as a part of election
    campaign, an Armenian political scientist said.

    "Armenian Americans votes unanimously and dependently on the
    candidate's position on the Armenian issue," Alexander Iskandaryan,
    director of Caucasus Institute, told a news conference today.

    "Election pledges and post-election policy are different things. So,
    Obama's victory won't affect the U.S. policy toward Armenia. The
    U.S. policy is first of all aimed to secure its own interests,"
    he said.

    Democrat Barack Obama captured the White House on Tuesday after an
    extraordinary two-year election campaign, defeating Republican John
    McCain to make history as the first black U.S. President.

    Obama won at least 338 Electoral College votes, far more than the
    270 needed.
