Azerbaijan Leaves Much to be Desired [UCLA]
Haig Hovsepian, Daily Bruin, October 25, 2006
"In the 1980s, the United States supported Iraq, which is another oil-rich, Muslim majority state. Very little attention was paid to the suppression of minorities in this state. Its regime’s disrespect for human rights and its neighbors was conveniently glossed over. The public was encouraged to naively believe it was the perfect partner."

Armenian Students Fast, Raise Funds for Darfur
Allison Sovey, Daily Trojan, March 3, 2006
"Though many student groups have been working to relieve the estimated 2.3 million Sudanese citizens in need of emergency aid, this group is unique because all members are Armenian.
'They have felt the effects of the Armenian genocide and relate to the victims of the Darfur violence more than most,' said Vazken Movsesian, the priest of the church and chaplain of the Armenian Student Association at USC."

Turkey Needs to Eradicate Policies Before Being Granted EU Membership [Tufts]
Taleen Babayan, Tufts Daily, October 6, 2005
"Turkey has imposed a blockade upon a neighboring Christian sovereign country, Armenia, while vigorously rejecting the historically documented genocide perpetrated against Armenians. Turkey should moderate its uncompromising support for Azerbaijan so the Nagorno Karabagh issue can move forward towards a peaceful resolution. It should also implement confidence-boosting measures with Armenia, including recognizing the genocide and lifting its decade old economic embargo."
