Yerevan, October 20, Armenpress: About thirty prominent Armenian intellectuals have come out today with an initiative to create a body that will represent the heirs of Armenians who escaped the genocide of Armenians in the historical Western Armenia in the Ottoman Turkey. The signatories propose to establish a National Assembly, a National Council and committees.
The initiating committee had sent messages to all heirs of Armenians who escaped the genocide to seek their accord and based on the feedback has decided to call a meeting in Paris on December 9-10. The group's statement says the meeting will elect an ad hoc National Council with its committees which will organize and steer elections of deputies to the National Assembly in all countries where heirs of the genocide live. This National Assembly is supposed to elect the National Council of Western Armenians.
The idea behind this initiative, according to the statement, is to work out and carry out such all-Armenian projects which will promote strengthening of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, consolidation of free democracy and defense of Armenians' interests globally.
Another goal is to negotiate with Turkish authorities and other stakeholders to attain the recognition of Armenian genocide, its condemnation and press for compensations for the property of Western Armenians and to ensure unobstructed return of the heirs to Western Armenia where their ancestors lived.
Does anyone know anything else about this Assembly? And if someone knows a website with info realted to this pls post it here!

FINALLY, we are getting organized in the Diaspora.
Perhaps I could attempt to emulate my ancestor. But I know I would get very few votes despite my Dick Gautier looks, numerous advanced degrees and ties to US politicians.

"Does anyone know anything else about this Assembly? And if someone knows a website with info realted to this pls post it here!"
there is no website for "this" body
actually there are two different assemblies. the Assembly you are asking was recently created.
The other Assembly is the "Armenian National Council" created by Armenag Aprahamian in 2004, so two years before the "body representing heirs of armenians who escaped genocide". I heard it was a serious body. i know they already have a list of 8 people who will be elected soon by voters from Western Armenia.

which one is more trustful?
the problem with this new body is its strong connexion with Ara Abrahamian, a dude of Vladimir Poutine. This body is the baby of Ara Abrahamian.
on the contrary, the Armenian National Council is independant from Russia. But i dont know what is behind this one. but the leader has a reputation of courageous man and artsakh war veteran.
