Uncle Ruslan ‘of the CIA’.

The uncle of Boston’s two Tsarnaev brothers worked for the CIA-front
organisation called USAID.

Obama’s mother also worked for USAID, while being in the CIA, reportedly.

Uncle Ruslan Tsarni (Tsarnaev), of Montgomery Maryland, graduated from
Duke Law School in 1998 and is now a ‘well-connected’ oil executive
and lawyer.

Uncle Ruslan appears to have links to a group of oil executives who,

business relationships’ allegedly used for `international corruption,’

Uncle Ruslan is currently involved in an international criminal
investigation into Timur Kulibayev, who has links to prince Andrew

Kulibayev is the Kazakh billionaire alleged to have stolen $6 billion
from Kazakhstan’s BTA Bank.

Kulibayev is married to Kulibayeva, the daughter of Kazakhstan’s
President Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Prince Andrew sold his home to Kulibayev, who paid $5 million over the
asking price.

According to The London Telegraph:

`A group of wealthy Kazakh oil executives and Prince Andrew’s close
friend Goga Ashkenazi met at a Thai beach resort, when the deal to buy
the Prince’s home was discussed.’

The group `was joined by a mystery man, who stayed in Miss Ashkenazi’s
private villa, who used the alias `John Smith’ on the resort’s
reservation record.’
`The sale of the Sunninghill estate… has already raised concerns after
it was disclosed the buyer was an offshore trust belonging to Timur
Kulibayev…’

The purchase of Prince Andrew’s house was put together, according to
prosecutors in Italy and Switzerland, by a group of oil executives who
comprise `a network of personal and business relationships’ allegedly
used for `international corruption,’ according to The London
Telegraph.

Exclusive: Prince Andrew’s £15million home…

The Sunday Times reported, `A statement by Ruslan Zaindi Tsarni was
given in the High Court in December, claiming that Kulibayev bought
Sunninghill and properties in Mayfair with $96 million derived from a
complex series of deals intended to disguise money laundering.’
`Tsarni alleged that the money came from the takeover of a western
company, which had been used as a front to obtain oil contracts from
the Kazakh state.’

The `western company’ is said to be Big Sky Energy Corporation, where
Ruslan Tsarnaev was a top executive.

Before the Tsarnaev family moved to the United States, ten years ago,
they lived in the Kyrgyz town of Tokmok, near the border with
Kazakhstan.

Tokmok is home to a large Chechen community.
Reportedly, organized crime boss Aziz Batukaev, who is also an ethnic
Chechen, lived next door to the Tsarnaevs.

(Reuters) – Working out at the gym at their sleepy New England
college, two students chatted about how `crazy’ it was that bombs
exploded at the Boston Marathon. Three days later, one of them was
named a prime suspect.
Returning to campus on Sunday after being evacuated on Friday during a
massive manhunt for the bombers, students at the University of
Massachusetts-Dartmouth swapped recollections of seeing Dzhokhar
Tsarnaev, 19, back in the dorm, at class and in the gym in the
aftermath of the bombings.

Tsarnaev was working out in the gym from 8 to 10 p.m. on Tuesday,
listening to music on his iPod, when he struck up a conversation with
fellow sophomore Zach Bettencourt.

`It’s crazy this is happening now,’ Bettencourt recalled Tsarnaev
telling him when the bombings came up.

State Dept.: Separatists control Nagorno-Karabakh with Armenia’s support

By Sara Rajabova, Azernews

Armenia’s policy of aggression against Azerbaijan is causing concern
and drawing condemnation from superpowers.

Thus, recently the U.S. State Department stated in its report on human
rights practices for 2012 that separatists, with Armenia’s support,
continue to control most of Nagorno-Karabakh and seven other
Azerbaijani territories.

The report also said the final status of Nagorno-Karabakh remained the
subject of international mediation by the OSCE Minsk Group, which is
co-chaired by Russia, France, and the United States.

Director of the Institute of Political Studies of the Academy of
Public Administration under the President of Azerbaijan, political
expert Elman Nasirov said there are several points related to Armenia
in the State Department’s report that are of great interest to
Azerbaijan.

“Firstly, this report specifically cites the state of Armenia and its
support for the separatist regime. This is a very important point for
us, because we are witnessing that in many cases Armenia is left
outside [the negotiation process], as if the separatist regime, not
Armenia, mainly takes part in the peace process.

“None of the four UN Security Council resolutions [calling for
Armenia’s withdrawal from the occupied Azerbaijani territory], cites
Armenia. This report, however, does cite it, which is an extremely
important issue,” Nasirov said.

Another point in the report is confirmation of the fact about the
separatist regime’s occupying Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent
regions of Azerbaijan with Armenia’s support, he said.

“This is also a very important point, because in most cases the
Armenian side does not deny the seven adjacent regions’ belonging to
Azerbaijan, saying that they keep them as a security zone, but argues
that Nagorno-Karabakh belongs to them. But the fact that the
occupation of both Nagorno-Karabakh and the seven surrounding regions
was reflected in the State Department report is one of the very
important points.”

According to the expert, another important point in the report is the
reference to widespread corruption in Armenia, serious problems with
democracy and the violations of law revealed during the parliamentary
election held in Armenia last May.

In this case, the analyst said, Baku gains additional arguments in the
negotiations with international organizations, namely, the OSCE and
its Minsk Group. It can draw special attention to this fact during the
discussions, saying that “massive fraud occurred, there are serious
problems with democracy and human rights during elections, corruption
and bribery is rife, so, how can we engage in talks on
Nagorno-Karabakh with such a regime, solve the problem, negotiate
normally?”

Nasirov said another point is that the United States’ stating its
position as a Minsk Group co-chair and sharply criticizing Armenia in
the mentioned report shows that this country has no intention to
seemingly act as an outside observer of the conflict settlement
process as it did previously.

“It is not ruled out that Washington will step up its activity on the
issue [the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict resolution]. And in this case,
one of the tasks facing the Azerbaijani diplomacy should be to convey
to the U.S that Armenia has deliberately choosen the tactic of backing
down from peace talks. Whereas previously Armenia followed the policy
of prolongation of the conflict, now it has chosen the tactic of
refusing to hold talks and is trying by all means to prevent them from
taking place,” Nasirov said.

The expert said that the goal pursued by Yerevan is to replace itself
in peace talks with the separatist regime – the self-proclaimed
“Nagorno-Karabakh Republic”, which would negotiate as a full-fledged
party.

“Armenia thus tries to legitimize the separatist regime and present it
as a subject of international law. Certain steps have already been
taken in this regard. Thus, in 2012 the legislative bodies of Rhode
Island and Massachusetts states of the U.S. essentially passed a
decision on the recognition of the self-proclaimed “Nagorno-Karabakh
Republic” and sent that decision to the federal government. New South
Wales State of Australia has made a similar decision; also, a
friendship group with the so-called “Nagorno-Karabakh Republic” in the
Lithuanian parliament has been set up. All this once again proves that
Armenia has chosen the tactic of achieving recognition of the
separatist regime by the international community. So, the mentioned
report shows that the U.S. indeed intends to play an active role in
the peace process. This being said, taking into account the points I
made, it is necessary to convey to the U.S. that it should direct its
activity in this direction,” Nasirov said.

Azerbaijan and Armenia for over two decades have been locked in
conflict, which emerged over Armenian territorial claims. Since a
lengthy war in the early 1990s, Armenian armed forces have occupied
over 20 percent of Azerbaijan’s internationally recognized territory,
including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent regions. The UN Security
Council has adopted four resolutions on Armenia’s withdrawal from the
Azerbaijani territory, but they have not been enforced to this day.

Peace talks brokered by OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs representing the
United States, Russia and France have been largely fruitless so far.

The negotiations are underway on the basis of a peace outline proposed
by the Minsk Group co-chairs and dubbed the Madrid Principles, also
known as Basic Principles. The document envisions a return of the
territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh to Azerbaijani control;
determining the final legal status of Nagorno-Karabakh; a corridor
linking Armenia to the region; and the right of all internally
displaced persons to return home.

Military solution to Nagorno-Karabakh conflict unacceptable: Ventrell

Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council’s four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
surrounding regions.

World Bulletin/News Desk

The tragic loss of life in the war between Azerbaijan and Armenia
reminds us that there cannot be a military solution to the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Acting Deputy Spokesperson Patrick Ventrell
said during a briefing in Washington.

“Only a lasting and peaceful settlement can bring stability,
prosperity, and reconciliation to the region,” he said. “The United
States is a co-chair of the Minsk Group, and we remain firmly
committed to working with both sides to achieve peace.”

The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.

Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group – Russia, France, and the U.S. – are
currently holding the peace negotiations.

Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council’s four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
surrounding regions.

Armenians meet in Carrollton to commemorate their darkest days

By DIANNE SOLIS
Published: 26 April 2013 10:45 PM

Though the massacre of 1.5 million Armenians happened generations ago,
in the years around 1915, a Sunday memorial in Carrollton will
undoubtedly spark a chain of ancestral memory.

In her final days some 52 years ago, Maryam Kouserian’s horrors from
1915 unreeled with cinematic force. She would tell her young
granddaughter Seta, `Don’t go outside. The Turks will come and get
you. Don’t go outside!’

The granddaughter had never heard her grandmother even speak. Seta
Barsamian believes trauma suffocated her grandmother’s voice.

`Many genocide survivors didn’t speak of it,’ said Barsamian, who
moved from Lebanon to Texas and is now 67. `They were in shock.’

By 1965, Barsamian said, books and proclamations and memorials began
to place literary, scholarly and emotional markers on what happened to
a Christian tribe of people known as Armenians who lived in what is
now Turkey and Armenia.

Those of Armenian ancestry outside Armenia and Turkey now outnumber
those inside its borders. They immigrated to France, Lebanon, Syria
and Argentina and the U.S., where they are rooted in Fresno, Calif.,
Los Angeles, Boston and North Texas.

For some 20 years, a commemoration has been held in late April on a
date that roughly coincides with a roundup of Armenian leaders and
intellectuals for persecution. Activities in Carrollton begin this
Sunday shortly after noon at St. Sarkis Armenian Church, 1805 Random
Road.

Deacon Justin Ajamian of St. Sarkis called the Armenian genocide the
first of the 20th century. To remember it might have prevented others.

Memorial events `raise awareness that genocide affects people in a
traumatic way and we should not forget it,’ Ajamian said.

Among the activities will be music, dance and a recognition of memories.

Carrollton Mayor Pro Tem Jeff Andonian said he will attend. His two
Armenian grandfathers fled Turkey. His two Armenian grandmothers fled
what were known as `death camps’ where Armenians were marched into
Syria to die, he said.

He videotaped his grandmother’s stories so others would remember.
Andonian, 56, can densely pack a conversation with detail about
Armenian roots, poetry and scholarship relating to the genocide.

Author Peter Balakian, for example, calls the U.S. response to the
Armenian crisis `the first international human rights movement in
American history.’

`There needs to be a voice of conscience that this should not happen
again,’ Andonian said. `It is our duty and obligation, whether
Armenians, Jews, or you are from Rwanda or Darfur. This is a terrible
plague.’

The brochure for the event borrows from a ferocious passage from one
of the best-known writers of Armenian descent, the late Pulitzer Prize
winner William Saroyan.

`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.’

Protest action in front of Armenian President’s residency

2013-04-27 18:08:10

On April 26 Pilots and technical engineers of ‘Armenian Airlines’ got
disabled as a result of their professional activities were holding a
protest in front of the residency of the President of Armenia Serzh
Sargsyan, Armenianreport reported.

The protestors wer demanding the payment of the reparations of health
damages induced in the course of their professional activity, which
had not been paid since September 2006 when ‘Armenian Airlines’
started bankruptcy proceedings.

“The airline ceased paying the reparations due to its incapacity after
the second President of Armenia Robert Kocharyan by the decision of
the government and without a prior auction declared ‘Armenian
Airlines’ bankrupt on March 27, 2003, and sold its property, selling
the remaining part to Michael Baghdasarov for a ridiculous amount of 5
millions of dollars,” the disabled pilots noted.

They noted that, under the Constitution, the government takes the
responsibility for these payments after the company is declared
incapable, but after the constitutional reforms, this item was
withdrawn from the basic law, and the pilots are demanding to return
it back to the Constitution.

“We are told that our state is not able right now to pay the
compensation due to the difficult economic situation. But Kocharyan,
who liquidated the airline with his own hands has enough money, so let
him pay for his actions,” the disabled aviation workers summarized.

Hovik Abrahamyan suggests using economic education in favor of
overcoming the crisis

13:28, 27 April, 2013

TSAGHKADZOR, APRIL 27, ARMENPRESS. The Government of Armenia is taking
serious steps for developing learning-based economy in the state. The
Chairman of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia Hovik
Abrahamyan announced this during the conference titled “New Economic
Thought” held by the Student Council of the Armenian State University
of Economics taking place in Tsaghkadzor. As “Armenpress” reports
Hovik Abrahamyan greeted the students and the faculty attaching
significance to the organization of conferences of the economic
sphere. “Such conferences give students a chance to contribute to the
development of economy and crisis resolution. To make the conferences
more efficient it is necessary to introduce the questions discussed
during the conferences to the state bodies in written form,” said
Abrahamyan suggesting sending the reports of the conference to the
Parliament of the Republic of Armenia.

According to the Chairman of the National Assembly the economic crisis
is not yet overcome in Armenia and it’s vital to use economic
education in favor of the crisis resolution. “For making economic
education more effective, I suggest that students and professors of
Armenian State University of Economics to hold a couple of lessons in
the National Assembly. The members of the Economic Committee of the
parliament and representatives from the Government will share their
knowledge and experience during the lessons,” Abrahamyan said.
