Afghanistan. According to the expert, it is difficult to claim that
there is a state level support in training the Azerbaijani terrorists
but anyway there are such trainings. Grigoryan also stated that the
world should eventually realize and unveil the fake mask of `civilized
Azerbaijani state.’

PEACE IN THE REGION IS MAINTAINED DUE TO THE ARMENIAN ARMED FORCES: MELIK-SHAHNAZARYAN

YEREVAN, OCTOBER 19, ARMENPRESS. In the respect of future metamorphoses
of the region political activity of Armenia and growing strength of the
Armenian Army are of certain importance. This was said by political
scientist Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan during his press conference on
October 19. As reports “Armenpress” Melik-Shahnazaryan said: “The
region is on the eve of radical changes and in this respect the main
priority of the Armenian side for that period of time first of all
is political contribution and secondly military readiness”.

The political scientist is sure that peace in the region is maintained
due to the Armenian Armed Forces. Melik-Shahnazaryan mentioned:
“Real politics in the region is dictated by the Armenian Armed
Forces”. At the same time the expert emphasized that he does not see
any possibility for resuming the war.

the situation about Astsakh to become part of Azerbaijan.

Melik-Shahnazaryan mentioned: “The extradition of Ramil Safarov to
Azerbaijan must become the new cornerstone in the negotiations”. In
his opinion dictatorial regime of Azerbaijan will not be interrupted,
as public sentiments there can be easily controlled.

who axe-murdered Armenian officer Gourgen Margaryan while sleeping,
when they were participating in NATO English Language Courses in the
capital of Hungary, was sentenced to life imprisonment without right
to be pardoned for 30 years. On August 31, 2012 Safarov was extradited
from Hungary to Azerbaijan and was pardoned by the President Ilham
Aliyev. The murderer was advanced to major, provided with a passport,
an apartment and became a “national hero”.

six new ambassadors in my residence, from Cote d’Ivoire, Italy,
Malta, and Armenia as well as from Egypt and Jordan, after two years
without a Jordanian ambassador to Israel. The peace between us saved
the lives of tens of thousands of young people in Jordan, Egypt,
the Middle East and in Israel. The lives of the young people are
the most important concern. I know it’s not simple, I know there are
people who try to frustrate peace and I believe that our governments
will do whatever they can to keep the peace between us deep, sincere,
strong and serious for the sake of your people and for the sake of our
people. I know this is an unfinished job because you, as well as us,
would like to see peace across the Middle East. Feel welcome and at
home in our country. All doors are open to you in order to strengthen
the relationships and increase the cooperation between our countries.

SHOULD HAVE BUILT A HOSPITAL
Naira Hayrumyan

Story from Lragir.am News:

Published: 14:56:01 – 18/10/2012

The union of compatriots of Nig-Aparan headed by Prosecutor General
Aghvan Hovsepyan is building a huge cross on the road Yerevan-Aparan,
which is perhaps supposed to convince people that Hovsepyan is
a Christian.

Christianity is based on the ideology of kindness and equality. For
centuries, Christian people used to prove their devotion to God by
doing good things, trying to give everyone equal lives. There are
charitable hospitals in many countries built by Christians where
sisters of charity work. Those who have nowhere else to go, who have
no money, can get treatment in those hospitals.

In a country where 38% of the population is poor, the construction
of a huge cross is unforgivable luxury. Christians should not waste
money on a cross when there are a lot of poor people around, when
people live in temporary houses and die because they have no money to
go to the doctor and 54% of children with disabilities are also poor.

Construction of crosses, dancing around a mountain and erecting stone
letters around Aragats is not an expression of goodness but usual
demonstration of perverse manners of those who honor the ~Sgolden
calf~T instead of God. People who suddenly came to a fortune deep down
realize that they seized what belongs to the others not by Christian
rules, and so they try to show that they don~Rt spend money on sinful
acts. Maybe someone is trying to earn pardon.
