    RUSSIAN DUMA MEMBER SUGGESTS ESTABLISHING PARTY SIMILAR TO ARF

    YEREVAN (YERKIR) - Dmitry Rogozin, the former leader of the Rodina
    Party and a member of the Russian State Duma, called for establishing
    a party in Russia similar to the Armenian Revolutionary Federation.

    As reported by Yerkramas, a newspaper published by the Armenians of
    southern Russia, Rogozin, speaking of a patriotic movement's future
    in Russia with a Russian online publication, said the example of the
    Armenian Revolutionary Federation could be useful.

    "ARF has been the key anti-Turkish force during the genocide of the
    Armenian people at the hands of the Ottoman Empire. Armenians became
    a 'scattered' nation but they had the ARF whose branches operated in
    different countries.

    There was an international bureau which made decisions on main issues,
    there were creative, cultural and educational elites."
