    IRANIAN MP: RECOGNITION OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE BY TEHRAN PRIOR TASK OF ARMENIAN COMMUNITY OF IRAN
    by Marianna Lazarian

    Wednesday, July 3, 14:32

    In the course of the presidential campaign in Iran, the local Armenian
    community actively cooperated nearly will all the political forces,
    Karen Khanlaryan, a member of the Iranian Milli Mejlis, told media
    in Yerevan, Wednesday.

    "The Armenian community made its demands to every candidate for
    president, in particular, recognition and condemnation of the fact of
    Genocide of Armenians as well as an Armenian community representative
    in the executive power structures." The Iranian MP said. Nearly all
    the candidates accepted the demands of the Armenian community. So,
    in the post-election period the Armenian community representatives
    should try to establish close contacts with the newly elected President
    Hassan Rouhani to achieve fulfillment of their demands.

    As regards migration of Armenians from Iran, Khanlaryan said that
    the main reason of migration is social and economic conditions of
    the community.

    "Iranian Armenians mainly leave for the West - the USA and Canada,"
    he said. Khanlaryan said that the Armenian community in Iran numbers
    some 60-70 thousand people and the migration has certainly decreased.
