On May 30th. Armenia will again hold democratic elections. Armenians who have emigrated to other countries. especially those in my home state of Rhode Island. bring their traditions with them. They enrich the culture and contribute much to the society of their new homelands. Although each years commemoration of the Armenian genocide is important. I believe this years observance is particularly significantbecause of the crisis in Kosovo. Each night the television shows images of hundreds of thousands of refugees forced from their homes and each morning the paper is filled with stories of innocent civilians robbed and killed. These stories and images are heartwrenchingbut the people of Kosovo have not been abandoned. The nineteen nations of NATO are united in their resolve that another genocide will not be tolerated.
