POPE ASKED TO INTERVENE AND HELP RESOLVE KARABAGH CONFLICT Pope John Paul I consecrated today the first stone put into the foundation of a future Catholic Church that will be built in the capital of Muslim Azerbaijan, Armenpress news agency reported. The location for the Church was allotted at the order of the 79-year old president Heydar Aliyev. The Pope handed over to the leader of a tiny Catholic community of Azerbaijan the first donation that will be used for construction of the Church. The Pope was reported also to have a short (three minute) meeting with Azerbaijani refugees, who asked the Pontiff to intervene in the stalemate with neighboring Armenia to help resolve the ongoing Armenian-Azerbaijan conflict over Nagorno Karabagh so that they could return to their settlements. President Aliyev was also reported to have complained about Armenian occupation of the 20 percent of Azerbaijani territory and forced 1 million refugees. He was quoted by MPI news agency as saying that the OSCE Minks group and other international organizations should step up efforts for soonest resolution of the Nagorno Karabagh conflict. © Copyright AZG

Also agreements have been reached which will enable Armenian jewelers to participate in international jewelry fairs to be held in USA and Italy by the end of this year. By Marietta Makarian

NEW RULES ON TRAFFIC INTRODUCED At the May 23 session of the Armenian government the new traffic rules have been approved according to the law on ‘the police’. As deputy interior minister Ararat Mahtesian told the reporters after the session, the new rules will be enforced starting June 1. According to the deputy interior minister, there are a number of new provisions in the traffic regulations. Particularly clarity is introduced in settling the disputes in the road policeman-driver relations, as well as it was decided to inspect the traffic in the crossroads by the help of electronic devices. The use of mobile phones is banned during driving, unless the driver has special equipment in the car that enable him to talk on the phone without using his hands. Also the signs of ‘yard territory’ and ‘residential area’ are introduced, which suppose that the allowable speed of the car in those parts of the road should not exceed 20 km/p. © Copyright AZG

1,300 PARTICIPANTS ARRIVING The Second Armenia-Diaspora Conference begins May 27. This two-day gathering of representatives from Armenian communities of more than fifty countries, as well as from Armenia proper and Nagorno Karabagh is supposed to focus on four major directions-political relations and Armenia-Diaspora relationship, information and mass media, economy and social-economic development and education, science and culture. Some 1,300 representatives outside Armenia have confirmed participation in it, but it is not yet clear how many of them will arrive in the Armenian capital Jivan Movsisian, secretary of the steering commission which is led by foreign minister Vartan Oskanian, tells the daily Azg that personal invitations have been extended to all important spiritual and cultural Diaspora structures, to representatives of traditional Armenian parties, operating outside Armenia, church, educational and charitable organizations and also personal invitations have been sent to prominent Diaspora Armenians. Any Diaspora Armenian may apply for participation through Internet. All in all, delegates representing more or less organized Armenian communities in 54 countries are expected to come to Yerevan. At this moment it is already known that 240 delegates are arriving from Russia, more than 150 from the USA, some 150 from Iran and 80 Armenians from neighboring Georgia. Representatives from Armenia and Karabagh will encompass practically all areas of social and public life. Mr. Jivan Movsisian says that unlike the First Armenia-Diaspora Conference which was rather of a symbolic nature with an ultimate goal to outline issues of pan-Armenian importance and also an event of historical significance as Armenia for the first displayed political will to have convened a meeting of that scale, the second one will have a more practical shift and all the decisions that will be adopted should be implemented. He says no one should have many expectations from the Conference hoping that all pan-Armenian issues would be solved. Expectations are pinned on the fact that it is expected to bolster up reciprocal confidence. The Conference is creating a special environment in Yerevan. Armenians from different corners of the world will be having a unique opportunity to communicate and get to know each other better during a one-week stay here. A special emphasis will be placed on youth issues, encompassing also education, culture and science questions. The first Conference decided to set up a Pan-Armenian Youth Center in the resort town of Tsakhkadzor for Armenian youths from around the globe to gather and share their ideas. The building for the Center has been allotted by a government decision. However, such meetings are not an end in itself and if this Conference decides to convene the third one, it will be held. Large scale pan-Armenian meetings in other formats may also be convened. © Copyright AZG

FRUNZE DOVLATIAN AND HIS TIME http://www.azg.am/IMAGE/200209402.jpg In 1996 during a regular congress of Tekeyan Cultural Union I became an eyewitness to an interesting conversation that occurred between Frunze Dovlatian and a man who had held different high positions in Soviet Armenia. The conversation was about a film called Yerkunk (Birth) “The scene with drunken Charents was indeed great,” said the former leader-intellectual. – Indeed, it was a profound, great scene!” “Yes, yes,” the prominent film director said. “I wanted to squeeze it into a ten-minute-long screen time and to grasp the contradiction of that time. I guess I did it.” “You are right,” the former leader went on. Seeing that scene I realized one thing: if we want Yerkunk to go through the censorship that episode must be removed and eliminated. I am very sorry, but there was no other way out. -Yes, the director consented modestly; there was no other way out. Prominent Armenian film director Frunze Dovlatian, whose 75-th birth anniversary is marked May 26, shot only 9 full-length films, which all, without any exception, were subjected to ruthless censorship and were ideologically edited. The record holder was a film based on a screenplay by Perch Zeytuntsian, called the Chronicle of Yerevan Days, which was shortened by 45 minutes. The fate of another film, The Saroyan Brothers, was most noteworthy. At the orders of the top leader some episodes were supplemented to it to make it “ideologically correct.” But along with it, the legacy left by Dovlatian is our national wealth, our pride and our highest achievement in the realm of filmmaking. In 1950 the 23-year old Frunze Dovlatian was awarded a Stalin prize for the leading part in a play called ‘These Stars are Ours.” He received a certificate signed personally by “the teacher of peoples.” Neither Vahram Papazian, nor Hrachya Nersisian, two other prominent Armenian actors of that time , were awarded such prizes, and none of Armenian art men at all. It was decided that a young actor should be awarded the prize. No one could imagine that after winning all the possible awards and prizes in Soviet Armenia, having been elected to the last Soviet parliament and becoming a senior member of the Communist party, the man who was called “the favorite of all regimes” would decide to join the ranks of the Ramkavar Azatakan party, would be elected member of its ruling board and would lead the Tekeyan Cultural Center, but would not be elected to the parliament of new Armenia because of being member of Ramkavar Azatakan, that he would be awarded a medal of independent Armenia and that a book dedicated to him, would be published only after his death. This all comes to prove that Dovlatian was a true citizen-honest and with a principled stance on every issue and at every minute. Hello, it’s me! In 1963 Dovlatian came back to Armenia and was given a work at ArmenFilm studio. Before that the 40 year –old director got a brilliant professional education in Moscow, working as an assistant with prominent Soviet movie director Sergey Gherasimov on Quite Don, a film, that became a phenomena in the world of cinema, as well as on documentaries. In the 60-s which were the years of awakening not only in the USSR but in Europe as well, when the youth took to streets in Paris and other Europe’s capitals, the first anti-war generation wanted new realities, real masterpieces were being created in art. In those years the Armenians raised for the first time their voice for return of historical lands and establishment of historical justice. The people were not scared of powerful Soviet secret service and took to streets. Those were the years when a peculiar kind of connection was established between the Soviet Armenia and Diaspora. In those years great works of Armenian poet Paruyr Sevak, Hovanes Shiraz, writer Sevak were published, which were awakening the national memory and pride. Interesting and new plays by Aramashot Papayan, Vardges Petrosian and Hrant Matevosian were staged in the Armenian theatres. The man who told all this to the Armenians and to the world in an understandable language was Frunze Dovlatian, who shot the film Hello; It’s Me in 1965. This was probably the sole work in movie that praised an intellectual Armenian. Its main character was a physicist, the most advanced and most fashionable science branch in those years. The plot story expands in Armenia, on the slopes of Aragats Mount where a physical observatory is located and its character is a prominent scientist who takes the Armenian science several steps ahead. In 1994 Frunze Dovlatian joins the traditional Armenian party-Ramkavar Azatakan and takes the lead of Tekeyan Cultural Center. He was elected ruling board member at the fourth congress of the party. The policy of then authorities was harshly criticized by the congress and it announced that the party would go to 1995 parliamentary elections with its only ally-the people. Political collisions of that sort did not push Dovlatian away from active participation in the political and public life. His name was among the first on the Ramkavar Azatakan electoral list and he was nominated under a majoritarian electoral system in a Yerevan precinct. In 1990 he shot his latest, the ninth film he called Karot (Yearning). In early 90-s it became clear that the rulers of the new independent Armenia were not interested in art in general and in Dovlatian, in particular. The election campaign for 1995 parliamentary elections was in full swing and the ruling regime decided to put an end to every kind of democracy and did not spare in its drive none, even Dovlatian. The Respublika alliance, led by the Pan-Armenian national movement (HHSH) was keen on pushing two doctors as representatives of intellectuals into parliament and as they failed to find true doctors, they pushed in two chief doctors, one of which was competing with Dovlatian. Back from a meeting with voters, Dovlatian, who was used to applause, was stunned. “You know, he said, hiding a smile. The hall was full of nurses and even of patients, who were promised a two-day free treatment and when the chief doctor entered the hall he was greeted by a storm of applause.” One of the finds of the ruling regime in 1995 was the Shamiram organization, a kind of hen party, created by the interior ministry. The Tekeyan Cultural center was given to a beggarly caricaturist, which made an announcement in the press that he was sacking Dovlatian from his post. After that announcement Dovlatian used to joke that he was the second Armenian after Charents, to have been sacked from a cultural union. The Tekeyan center was for a long denied registration. Everything came to an end in 1996 winter when Dovlatian had a high level meeting, in which he was advised not to deal with politics with wrong people. Immediately after that Tekeyan Cultural Center was re-registered. Then came 1997. As an afterward Researches, dedicated to Frunze Dovlatian, whether they are monographs or articles, should not have afterwards, as the gifted man of art lives in two times-in his own and in the upcoming. His time is not only the surprising time of the 60-s but also our dreams of future. His time is still ahead; it is the time when we shall be priding ourselves of being compatriots of Dovlatian. When we shall be priding of our gifted men. By Rouben Mirzakhanian © Copyright AZG

ACCORDING TO FIFA RATING ARMENIAN COMBINED FOOTBALL TEAM 101-ST IN THE WORLD 22.05.2002 /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian national combined football team is only the 101-st in the world. As reported by "Arminfo" agency, the FIFA monthly rating shows this. Let us note that a month ago the Armenian football combined team was the 99-th in the world. In specialists' opinion, the main reason of losing the previous positions is that the Armenian combined team did not participate in any competitions or friendly matches lately, which let other teams outstrip it. The champions of the world and Europe – the French football players are at the lead of the list of the best combined teams of the world. The teams of Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, Portugal, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Holland and Yugoslavia are in the top ten. Let us also note that according to the UEFA rating, the Armenian combined team is the 47-th in Europe. Reproduction in full or in part is prohibited without reference to "PanARMENIAN.Net"

The secretary of Pope John-Paul II, who is in Azerbaijan now, has stated it today. It is was expected, the Pope himself should have told about the building of the church, but the state of the health of the Catholic church head did not let him finish his speech. The secretariat had to read the rest of the speech of the Pope. John Pail II himself spoke very slowly and in low tones. 82-year-old Pope moved with the help of special cart that was pushed on by the security guards. Today morning after the mess said by John Paul II a group of refugees from Armenia was led to the Pope in order that they told him about "evil deeds" of Armenians. The tired Pope could not speak to them. In the afternoon the Pope left Baku for Sofia. Reproduction in full or in part is prohibited without reference to "PanARMENIAN.Net"

AZERIS NOT LIKE FACT THAT NAGORNO-Artsax CAPITAL CALLED STEPANAKERT /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Baku media went into hysteric because of that the Norwegian oil company "Barwil Georgia Network" introduced a stand where the map of Caucasus, including Armenian toponyms, was demonstrated at the exhibition organized by "ITECA Caspian" firm. The journalists waxed indignant over the fact that Stepanakert on this map was introduced as it is known to the whole world. Meanwhile, Azeris started to call Nagorno Artsax capital Khankendi and think the foreign guests that were in Baku should have followed their example. The Baku journalists were also dissatisfied with the fact that the Nagorno Artsax territory was a color different from the Azerbaijani territory. The chairman of the Norwegian part, who was called to account, justified himself with that the map was issued in Turkey.
