  • 2004 : Un courrier de Ara Ashjian de Bagdad (Monday, February 14, 2005 11:26 AM)

    - Due to the war on Iraq in March-April 2003, the Armenian community in Iraq, fortunately, had little casualties. Few Armenians lost their lives during military operations, and a number of houses belonging to Armenians were damaged.

    - In the aftermath of the war, the Armenian Club and the priest residence at the northern city of Kirkuk, and the Armenian Club at the southern city of Basra had been looted by the mob.

    - Armenians worldwide took role in aiding their brothers and sisters in Iraq. For instance, a relief committee was established in California, USA, which donated monetary assistance to aid Armenian families who were facing distressing circumstances due to the war and to rebuild damaged residences.

    - The Catholicos of All Armenians H.H. Karekin II issued an appeal to all Armenian dioceses worldwide to aid Iraqi Armenians. Consequently, the Community received from the Holy See of Echmiadzin all the donations of the Armenian churches worldwide. Donations were also made by the Karaghozian and other Armenian Relief Foundations, and the Armenians Aid Fund, USA; the Committee to relief the Iraqi Armenians in the UK; and the Armenian community in Germany.

    - Efforts to uphold the educational and the religious rights The Primate of the diocese H.E. Archbishop Avak Asadourian and the community officials exerted considerable effort in the post-war era to uphold the educational and the religious rights of the Iraqi Armenians, in order that the forthcoming constitution will take into consideration the Armenians' as well as other Iraqi minorities' rights.

    - The establishment of the Armenian National School of Baghdad was one of the priorities. The Diocese formed a committee to achieve the aim of reopening the National School that was nationalized 30 years ago.
    The Primate had many contacts with the officials of the former Iraqi Governing Council and the Ministry of Education to achieve this goal. As a result of these efforts, and for the first time in the history of Iraq, the right to teach Armenian along with other languages in Iraq was stated in the country's transitional constitution.

    - It is noteworthy to observe that the Primate and the officials of the Community had also made efforts to recover the building of an Armenian secondary school in Baghdad, which was impounded by the previous regime.

    - It is our hope that this building, which needs large amount of funds for total renovation because it was burned and looted, will soon open its doors as a secondary school.

    Sincerely,

  • Ara S. Ashjian Baghdad, Iraq

  • 3/ Soldats arméniens envoyés en Iraq ?
  • "Les Arméniens d’Irak demandent à Erevan d’annuler l’envoi des troupes INGERENCE,jeudi 30 septembre 2004-ARMENEWS- Le leader spirituel de la communauté arménienne d’Irak, l’archevêque Avak Asadurian, a demandé à Erevan de ne pas envoyer de troupes pour la reconstruction du pays. Selon lui, le risque serait trop grand pour les Arméniens d’Irak. Il a envoyé une lettre au Parlement qui doit débattre avant la fin de l’année du déploiement d’un contingent d’hommes dans le pays. Il a précisé qu’il avait déjà envoyé une lettre similaire au président Robert Kotcharian, un peu plus tôt dans l’année. " Il y a une importante communauté ici et des structures arméniennes qui pourraient devenir la cible du terrorisme ", a expliqué Avak Asadurian.

    Le prêtre de Bagdad, Narek Ishkhanian, a fait écho à ces déclarations, citant les attaques répétées contre les pays soutenant les Etats-Unis. " Nous, les Arméniens d’Irak, sommes contre l’intervention de l’Arménie, a-t-il souligné. Nous avons peur que les insurgés commencent à nous kidnapper et à nous tuer où qu’ils attaquent nos églises et nos institutions. Nous demandons donc aux autorités arméniennes de ne pas envoyer de troupes. Cela mettrait notre communauté en danger. Ayez pitié de nous".
