THREE-DAY SEMINAR, ORGANIZED BY INITIATIVE OF DM OF ESTONIA, LATVIA
AND LITHUANIA, ENDED IN YEREVAN

A three-day seminar "Public Relations", organized by the initiative
of Defense Ministries of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and held by
invitation of Armenia’s DM Serzh Sarkissyan, ended in Yerevan. The
Heads and representatives of press-offices of State Departments of
Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Armenia participated in the seminar. A
"round table" has been held today with participation of journalists.
The representatives of RA Mass Media and Baltic guests were enabled
to ask questions to each other on their subjects of interest. "During
the seminar, each party had presented its own structure of the
department of departments for public relations", the Head of the
Department for Public Relations of Estonia’s DM, Madis Mikko, said.

M. Mikko noted in the talk with ArmInfo correspondent that such a
communication for Trans-Baltic countries is a natural way of work,
though such a seminar is held for the first time in Armenia. "Such
relations have been established long ago. Moreover, as we are the
members of the EU and NATO, we cooperate with the states being in the
structure of these organizations. As for the third countries out of
these organizations, we surely have work contacts", he said. In M.
Mikko’s opinion, such seminars and contacts enable an information
exchange. "The most important thing is to understand the way of
thinking. I think, three days are enough for that. It was very
interesting for us. It was the first exchange of opinions. It is
important that our colleagues in Armenia have many such questions
which we face with. The difference, possibly, is in the method of
these issues solution", M. Mikko said.

Asked if there is something Armenia can learn from its western
colleagues, M. Mikko noted that one can always learn irrespective of
the geographic position.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
