Who bottles Bjni Mineral Water?

Many wonder who Bjni mineral water sold in Armenian markets belongs to and who it is bottled by.

The embattled Armenian mineral water plant owned by opposition-linked businessman Khachatur Sukiasian stood idle after October 20, 2008. The Company was announced bankrupt on April 6, 2009.

Ara Zohrabian, a lawyer for the Bjni mineral water plant, told A1+ that they have no connection to the Bjni put up for sale in markets.

After A1+ reminded Mr. Zohrabian that the place of production (village of Bjni) remains the same on the bottles, the lawyer said: “The village has several springs of mineral water.”

Supposedly, Arsen Chikchian, the bankruptcy manager, continued bottling the mineral water until a Kotayk court took a decision on the company’s final dissolution.

Remind that Bjni mineral water plant has filed a court action to the European Court of Human Rights against the Armenian government. The Company protests against a violation of the right to a fair trial and links the clamour around Bjni CJSC with Khachatur Sukiasian’s political activity and support for former President Levon Ter-Petrosian’s bid to return to power in 2008.

In case the ECtHR grants the Company’s claim, the Armenian government will be forced to compensate 220 million Euros to Bjni.

Davutoglu Reveals Ankara’s Steps if Obama Uses The Term Genocide

March 10, 2010

Turkey’s Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu had a meeting with Turkish Ambassador to the US Namik Tan, who was recalled to Ankara following the endorsement of the Armenian Genocide Resolution by the US House Foreign Relations Committee.

According to the Turkish Stargazete, Davutoglu-Tan discussed Ankara’s further steps providing US President Barack Obama uses “Genocide” in his April 24 speech.

Thus, providing Obama uses “Genocide”, Ankara will freeze $1,2 billion deal on F-35 fighter jet and 14 CH-47 Chinook helicopter, as well as Patriot Missile sale talks. Ankara will also limit the support to the US over Iran and Afghanistan.

Turkey Urges Obama To Block Armenian Genocide Bill

March 5, 2010

Just hours after recalling its ambassador to Washington, Turkey urged the U.S. government on Friday to thwart further progress of a draft congressional resolution that describes the mass killings and deportations of Armenians by Ottoman forces as genocide.

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu also warned President Barack Obama against using the word “genocide” in a statement on the issue expected next month. “We expect Obama not to perpetuate or exaggerate this crisis in April,” Davutoglu was reported to say, reiterating Ankara’s strong condemnation of the resolution’s approval by the Foreign Affairs Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives.

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, indicated that the Obama administration will try to block the resolution’s passage by the full House. In that regard, she downplayed its endorsement by the House panel.  Read more... (612 words)

Azerbaijan May Recall its Ambassador From Washington

March 5, 2010

The Azerbaijani Presidential Administration categorically condemned the adoption of the resolution recognizing the Armenian genocide by the U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee.

Such step by the U.S congressmen is mistaken and unfair, Azerbaijani Presidential Administration Socio-Political Department Head Ali Hasanov told reporters.

Hasanov said the Azerbaijani government condemns this step by the U.S. congressmen, and brings to attention that this decision was unilateral, unjust, pro-Armenian and anti-Turk in spirit. “We believe this decision also does not correlate strongly with the interests of the United States and the American people, and seriously damages the international image of this country,” he said.  Read more...

Hillary Clinton Says HR252 Affirming The Armenian Genocide Should Not Proceed

March 5, 2010

Immediately following Thursday’s dramatic House Foreign Affairs Committee vote approving House Resolution 252 affirming the Armenian Genocide, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the resolution should go no further.

While on a tour of Latin America, Clinton said from Costa Rica that the Obama administration has made its intentions clear:

“We do not believe that the full Congress will or should vote on that resolution and we have made that clear to all the parties involved,” Clinton said.

A day earlier, prior to the Committee vote, Clinton had urged Committee Chairman Howard Berman – a 27-year veteran congressman from California – not to bring the resolution to a vote, as had been scheduled since last month. Berman (a cosponsor of HR252), denied the Secretary’s appeal, leading to the narrow (23-22) approval.  Read more... (402 words)

US Aerospace and Defense Industry Say Armenian Genocide Resolution Would Hurt Trade With Turkey

March 4, 2010

The US aerospace and defence industry is urging House of Representatives lawmakers to reject a measure that would call a World War One-era massacre of Armenians by Turkish forces genocide, warning it could jeopardize US exports to Turkey.

The chief executives of Lockheed Martin Corp, Boeing Co, Raytheon Co, United Technologies Corp and Northrop Grumman Corp issued a rare joint letter, warning that passage of the measure by the House Foreign Affairs Committee could lead to “a rupture in U.S.-Turkey relations” and put American jobs at risk.

“Alienating a significant NATO ally and trading partner would have negative repercussions for US geopolitical interests and efforts to boost both exports and employments,” the CEOs warned in a Feb. 26 letter to the committee’s Democratic chairman, Representative Howard Berman.  Read more...
