    KAREN BEKARYAN: IT'S NECESSARY TO WORK OUT FILTERS" TO CHECK THE INCOMING INFORMATION

    How is it possible to ensure the security of information in the South
    Caucasus and what joint steps need to be taken in that direction?

    These issues were discussed at the conference on "Security issues and
    information cooperation" that kicked off in Yerevan today. During
    three days Armenian, Russian and Georgian politicians and media
    representatives will discuss how to prevent the outflow of information
    and provide "first hand" high-quality and exact information.

    According to analyst Karen Bekaryan, it is important to work out
    "filters" to check the information coming from the outside.

    References to this or that issue often differ or even contradict each
    other in the media field of the South Caucasus. This is the case
    with the Nagorno Karabakh issue. Karen Bkaryan says that even the
    publications in Armenian media are often contradictory. "However,
    we at least have the opportunity to check the information from our
    colleagues in Karabakh," he said.

    "Nevertheless, there is one major problem. What kind of information
    flows to the outer world? If someone is interested in issues related to
    the public, social and economic life of Nagorno Karabakh, where will
    he get the information and to what extent will that information be
    exact? It's a serious problem to find true "first hand" information
    against the background of the propaganda campaign launched by
    Azerbaijan," Karen Bekaryan said.

    Head of the CIS & Baltic Department of the Russian State News Agency
    RIA Novosti Alan Kasaev said "a team has been established, which
    clearly knows what it has to do to ensure information security. "This
    is especially important when the question refers to Russia's mediating
    role in the Armenian-Azerbaijani relations," he said.

    "Russia now plays an active role in the region, and the two visits
    of the Russian President to Armenia and Azerbaijan raised the
    Armenian-Russian relations to a new strategic level. On the other hand,
    they revealed a number of problems that exist in the negotiations
    and the media field," he said.

    Professor of the Tbilisi State University Gia Meparishvili agrees that
    there are a lot of problems in the information field and proposes his
    own solution. According to him, "instead of fearing of problems it's
    necessary to work jointly to solve those. There is no other way out."
