US embassy cable - 04YEREVAN2776

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.

1. (U) Sensitive But Unclassified.  Please protect 
accordingly. 
 
2. (SBU) Armenia's Constitutional Court has ruled that the 
remaining three Counterterrorism Conventions to which 
Armenia has not yet acceded are constitutional, and the 
National Assembly is due to ratify them in Spring 2005, 
according to MFA Americas Desk Chief Lilit Tutkhalian.  The 
GOAM, in response to earlier discussions on the same topic, 
has pushed the Convention on the Marking of Plastic 
Explosives for the Purpose of Detection, the Convention for 
the Suppression of Unlawful Acts Against the Safety of 
Maritime Navigation, and the Protocol for the Suppression of 
Unlawful Acts Against the Safety of Fixed Platforms Located 
on the Continental Shelf through the ratification process, 
and expects the National Assembly to consider the 
conventions before the end of the Spring session in 2005.
