October 27, 1999, Erevan
A commando lead by a former member of the ARF kills Vazguen Sarkissian, PM of Armenia; several ministers and deputies are also killed.

Le Monde, which is by no way hostile to Armenians – nor even to dashnaks, at this time –, mocks the official version of an isolated group (October 29, 1999):

“This assertion leads to some questions. How five men could, in the middle of the afternoon of wednesday, penetrate, with gaudy automatic rifle, in the walls of the parliament without being noticed by two controls by militiaman (one in the entrance and one in the hall). In the debate room, no security force is present and no shots counters commando members bursts. On the other side, and though killers didn’t behave as professionals – “they didn’t shot using their shoulders, but instead put their weapons near their stomach and sprayed the room with munitions”, as noticed a local observer – it is very clear on the footage that they search for someone they probaly have the order to kill: the prime minister Vazguen Sarkissian on who the commando’s chief Naouri Hounanian, a nearly unknown person, empties his rifle magazine.

On the other hand, some of the ministers, notably close to president Kotcharian, were opportunely lacking, though this day was the day of questions of parlementary to the government. The security minister, Sergueï Sarkissian, and the foreign affairs minister, Vartan Oskanian, lacked, as did Vano Siradeghian, sulphurous person, former internal affairs minister become deputy, whose name was recently mentioned in an affair of armed gangs constitution to commit political assassinations.”

Very comprehensive list. I'll search further if any more could be added.

Did you know that some of these terrorists were given a safehaven in Armenia, that is the Terrorist State?

some of them are even closely involved with ANCA and representing the "genocide" charlatans in US

what does that tell you?

In 1990, a petition of 180 000 signatories collected within Armenia ask to Governor Deukmejian to release Hampig Sassounian.

Reference: official Web site of ARF, French branch ( www.fra-france.com/index.php?page=article&id=56).

On December 10, 1998, a school room of Nor-Hadjën (Armenia) is called Hampig-Sassounian.

In 1985, Varujan Karapetyan ("Garbidjian") is sentenced to life as the chief of ASALA in France, and as the principal responsible of the Orly attack (July 15, 1983: 8 deaths, around 60 injured).

In order to put Varujan Karapetyan out of French prison, a sign campaign was started and nearly one million sign was collected in Armenia under the leadership of Echmiadzin Church and of course with the assists of the Armenian government.

Varujan Karapetyan is released by an Appeal Court in April 2001, and expelled to Armenia. Prime Minister of Armenia, Adranik Margaryan, was visited by Varujan Karapetyan; Margaryan explained his pleasure with Karapetyan’s heroic struggle for Armenia and he demanded Karapetyan to be looked after from the Minister of Health.
