ANKARA AND BAKU PREPARE TO UNPRECEDENTED PROVOCATION AGAINST ARMENIANS 08.02.2002 /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Ankara is preparing to begin the next anti-Armenian propagandistic campaign. Passing a resolution "condemning the genocide of the peaceful populations of Turkey and Azerbaijan committed by Armenians" is planned by Turkish Parliament February 26. Chairman of the Great National Council of Turkey Omar Izgi, who is in Baku on an official call, reported it. Let us remind that Azeri Parliament simultaneously intends to pass a decision concerning the events in Sumgait 1988. According to the data available, Azeri special services plan to present faked documents to the legislators to prove that the Armenian genocide in Sumgait was organized by Armenians themselves. Selection of time for passing anti-Armenian provocative documents by the Turkish and Azeri Parliaments is not casual. Ankara and Baku are thus trying to disorient the world public opinion, which will be reminded of the essence of "the Azeri nationalism" February 28 – the day of the 14-th anniversary of Sumgait genocide.

TURKISH FOREIGN MINISTRY PREPARING MEASURES TO PREVENT RELEASE OF "ARARAT" CANADIAN FILM ABOUT ARMENIAN GENOCIDE 08.02.2002 /PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Turkey is worried with the coming release of "Ararat" film, which is about the Armenian genocide." The article titled "Turkey against "Ararat" and printed on the first page of "Le Monde" French influential newspaper says this. "Mediamax" agency reports the newspaper writes that tension is growing because of the film of Canadian film director of Armenian origin Atom Egoyan. "Turkey refuses to recognize that Armenians became victims of the genocide. They call Egoyan's film the second "Midnight express," – "Le Monde" writes. (Alan Parker's film called "Midnight express" tells about the terrible life conditions of the prisoners in Turkish prisons. Even 20 years after many people still remember the film, which told negatively on the image of Turkey.) The first shots of "Ararat", where heads of Armenians stuck on rods are shown, has caused the sharpest criticism. "When it became known that Egoyan's film may be nominated for the Cannes international cinema festival, mobilization of public consciousness took place in Turkey. Turkish Foreign Minister has already prepared a project of international appearance directed against "Ararat" film" – "Le Monde" writes.

US ARMENIA LAWYER REACHES SETTLEMENT IN CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE A US-based Armenian lawyer Vardges Yeghian’s company has filed a class-action lawsuit against New York Life Insurance Co on behalf of heirs of the Armenian genocide for unpaid life insurance benefits. The New Life Insurance Co had sold life insurance policies to Armenians living in the Ottoman empire during the period prior to the Armenian Genocide, which began in 1915. Addressing the forum of Armenian lawyers in Europe in Paris February 2-3 Yeghian said that due to his company’s consistent work the lists of Armenians in the Ottoman empire who had bought New York Life’s insurance policies were received. The lawsuit of Yeghian’s company has been satisfied and now the company and New York Life will have to decide the amount of insurance benefits, to be paid to genocide victims’ heirs. Vardges Yeghian’s work was highly praised by Armenian lawyers with respect to confirmation of the fact of genocide as well. Armenian ambassador to OSCE and Central Europe Jivan Talibian was quoted by Noyan Tapan news agency as saying that “despite successful settlement of juridical questions, it is not enough to solve political problems.” However, according to him, this will allow in future to refer to territorial issues. © Copyright AZG

TURKEY FIRST IN WORLD FOR ITS AMOUNT OF FOREIGN DEBT TAKING LEAD OVER ARGENTINE 07.02.2002 /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The International currency fund has approved of provision of $16 billion credit to Turkey within the framework of the program of the economic aid for this country that has been the third for the two recent years. As Azeri media reports, 12 billion out of the allotted means is a new credit and 4 billion will be used according to the program adopted earlier. The means will be used to cover the budget deficit in 2002. It is expected that the new credit would allow mitigating the results of the current economic stagnation. According to experts, the current crisis has been the worst one for the last 50 years. When Turkey has received the credit, it will become the main debtor of the ICF with the $31 billion debt, leading over Argentine, the debt of which is $22 billion. It should be reminded that two months ago the ICF allotted the regular $3 billion trench to Turkey to stop the economic crisis in the country. The observers connect the ICF's special attitude toward Turkey with Ankara's support for the US military operation in Afghanistan. When commenting the current situation, «Gyunay» Baku newspaper wrote, «if there were not terrorist acts in New York, the ICF that is under US patronage would have never allotted credits worth billions. So, thanks to Usama bin Laden and may his father rest in peace!» Reproduction in full or in part is prohibited without reference to "PanARMENIAN.Net"

ARMENIAN CINEMA TO BE PRESENTED AT CANNES FILM FESTIVAL FEBRUARY 6.

It should be noted that this film is nominated for "Oscar" in 2002. Gevorkyan said that the nomination for "Oscar" does not prevent the film from participating in movie festivals of the first category, such as the Venice, Berlin or Cannes film festivals. However, if a film participates in one of these festivals it cannot take part in another. It should be noted that, 23 films are to compete for the Berlin Film Festival awards this year.

AZERBAIJAN INTENDS TO RAISE THE QUESTION OF EXPEDIENCY OF CLOSING ARMENIAN ATOMIC POWER STATION IN PACE 06.02.2002 /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Baku has found a new way to press on Yerevan. Azerbaijan intends to initiate discussion of the necessity to close the Armenian atomic power station at the session of PACE Ecology Committee. As it is known, EU experts express uneasiness regarding the security of the nuclear plant. Meanwhile, official Yerevan does not consider it possible to close the nuclear station, as the low primary cost of the electric power generated by the plant lets restrain the price of the electricity sold to the customers and thus support the domestic industry. Provoking discussion of the question that the Armenian nuclear power plant is dangerous in ecological sense, Azerbaijan aims at striking the Armenian economy. It is known that raising the tariffs for electricity, which will certainly take place if the atomic station is closed, can make the Armenian goods not competitive at the international market.

ARMENIAN GENOCIDE EXHIBITION IN FRANKFURT A historical photo-exhibition dedicated to the 1915 Armenian Genocide will open at the St. Katherine church of Frankfurt, Germany, on February 8. The exhibition with a rubric ‘Chronology. Persecution. Extermination’ will last till the 1-st of March. As the director of the Institute-Museum of Armenian Genocide Lavrenty Barseghian informed, member of Turkish intelligentsia’s ‘Union against genocide’ organization Donus Gunduz will open the exhibition – thus paying tribute to the memory of the genocide’s victims. Mr. Barsegian said that he is also going to participate in the opening ceremony of the exhibition, as well as in the round table to be held within the framework of the event. The goal of the exhibition is to once again remind the German authorities about the Armenian Genocide and acquaint the young generations with the most horrible crime of humanity- genocide. The organizers of the event are the Armenian Evangelical Church and German-Turkish intelligentsia’s ‘Union against genocide’ organization. ‘This joint initiative will serve as impetus for starting a dialogue between the two nations- based on recognition of genocide’,- said Mr. Barseghian. He also hoped that maybe the Frankfurt exhibition will break the ‘ice of Bundestag’ concerning the genocide recognition issue. © Copyright AZG
