Crash caused ARFD to cancel its meeting
In connection with the recent air crash, ARF Dashnaktsutyun cancelled its protest meeting scheduled tomorrow, July 16, near RA MFA building.

Condemning MG Co-Chairs' recent statement, ARFD planned to conduct a protest meeting tomorrow, July 17, near RA Foreign Ministry building. The party finds the statement violation of Artakh people's right to self determination. Dashnak activists in many countries also planned similar protests on the same day.

On July 15, a Caspian Airlines jet which was heading from Tehran to Yerevan crashed in the south-west of Iran 15 minutes after take-off from Tehran's Imam Khomeini International Airport. All 153 passengers and 16 crew members were killed.
