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.

Oskanian said he would relay reftel points, along with the Ambassador's strong encouragement to abstain on the votes, directly to President Robert Kocharian, though he was not optimistic about a change in Armenian plans to vote in favor of the No Action Motion and against the resolution. (Comment: Oskanian's response again illustrates the GOAM's continued courtship of Iranian economic and political favor (ref B). End Comment). EVANS
