YEREVAN, AUGUST 17, NOYAN TAPAN. Over the 15 years of its activities in
Armenia, the ARF has taken deep roots in the country. Armen Rustamian,
representative of the Supreme Body of the ARF of Armenia, said this at
the ceremony of opening the new building of the ARF Bureau in Yerevan
on August 16. According to him, the party is continuing its active
work because such important problems as the Armenian Cause (Hay Dat),
the Karabakh conflict, strengthening the country, etc. have not been
solved yet. "We have been founded for Armenia and the Armenian people
and must solve all the problems facing our people," representative of
the ARF Bureau Hrant Margarian stated. He noted that the opening of
the new building in Yerevan marks ARF's 15-year presence in Armenia,
as well as the 115th anniversary of the party's foundation. The ARF
Bureau building was purchased and repaired with funds of the Armenian
Diaspora, with the American Armenian couple Varand and Guri Melonian
making most of the contribution. In his speech, V. Melkonian pointed
out the necessity for providing assistance to historical Homeland in
the future too: "We are the Armenians living in Homeland and in the
Diaspora and we must complement one another." Head of the Georgian
diocese Bishop Vazgen Mirzakhanian conveyed the words of greeting and
congratulation of Catholicos of All Armenians. The opening ceremony
was attended by members of the Armenian government, representatives of
the Republican party, and leaders of the opposition, including Stepan
Demirchian, Raffi Hovhannisian, Albert Bazeyan, Paruyr Hayrikian.
