Armenia should send large unit to Iraq under command of English-American coalition, reads Conservative Party's declaration

National interests of Armenia demand that the Armenian government should respond to the call of US President George Bush and "immediately send a large unit to Iraq under the command of the English-American coalition", declares the Conservative Party of Armenia. The declaration says the party is sure that such an action will allow Armenia at last to do the ally's duty to the USA that have made the biggest contribution for the years of Armenia's independence", and also to get the experience of peacemaking, which will very soon become crucial in the Southern Caucasus.

The authors of the document express their opinion that, if the government does not take the step mentioned, Armenia will reach a new deadlock.
