    WORLD ARMENIANS CONGRESS TO CONSOLIDATE ARMENIA-DIASPORA TIES

    Public Television of Armenia, Yerevan
    16 May 06

    [Presenter] A regular sitting of the supreme board of the World
    Armenian Congress [WAC] opened in Yerevan today. Armenian Foreign
    Minister Vardan Oskanyan took part in the sitting.

    The chairman of the WAC, Ara Abramyan, said that the report on the
    supreme board's activities in 2004-05 was presented at the sitting.

    The supreme board will also discuss the WAC's goals and work done
    during the third Armenia-Diaspora forum in 2006. More than 100,000
    Armenians live outside Armenia and every condition must be created
    for those who want to return to the motherland, Ara Abramyan said.

    The chairman of the WAC said that he was talking about the creation
    of jobs and development of the Armenian economy.

    [Ara Abramyan captioned] We should create jobs and conditions in
    Armenia with help from the diaspora and people who are working
    abroad so as those who are looking for jobs would be able to return
    to the motherland.

    [Vardan Oskanyan speaking at the sitting] We have done a lot to boost
    the Armenian economy, maintain our statehood and settle the Nagornyy
    Karabakh conflict. The congress has done a lot to deepen relations
    between Armenia and the diaspora and will continue to work towards
    uniting the Armenians.
