US embassy cable - 04YEREVAN2693

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

(SBU) We delivered reftel demarche December 14 to 
Valeriy Mkrtumian, Head of the International 
Organizations Department at the Armenian Ministry of 
Foreign Affairs.  He stated that because of strong 
economic ties with Iran, Armenia may vote for the "no 
action" motion if offered on the Iranian resolution. 
Mkrtumian said, however, that his government would be 
quite likely to abstain or vote against a "no action" 
motion in the case of the Turkmenistan resolution.
