Armenians of France unaware of Armenians’ mobilizationNovember 25, 2010 - 18:50 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Chairperson of the European Armenian Federation for Justice & Democracy (EAFJD) Hilda Tchoboian said that information on the establishment of some coordination centers to mobilize reservists and veterans, who are planned to be airlifted to the Karabakh conflict zone via Iran’s territory in case of hostilities resumption, is so senseless that it does not need to be commented. “I have heard nothing about it, though France is mentioned among the countries, where Armenian reservists will be mobilized. It is an absurdity,” Tchoboian told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. According to information of REGNUM news agency, large businessmen of Armenian origin from four countries – Russia, France, the U.S. and France - have established coordination centers to mobilize reservists and veterans, who are planned to be airlifted to the Karabakh conflict zone via Iran’s territory in case of hostilities resumption. An initiator of Preventive Mobilization program, Russian entrepreneur of Armenian origin told a reporter of the news agency on condition of anonymity that works are carried out as part of recently established Union of Armenian Reservists and Veterans international Armenian public movement. According to him, information is collected in a single database in three languages – Russian, English and Spanish. As a whole, according to calculations of activists of the mobilization movement, up to 200,000 Armenians from over 38 countries can participate in it. The source added that the “information-analytical backbone” of the Armenian Diaspora’s mobilization reserve has been composed from former and current employees of intelligence services of various leading countries of the world.
