Meeting Armenia's President with representatives Armenian communities was very important, Oscar Tatosyan , chairman of the Eastern Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church stated, commenting on the Los Angeles meeting of Serzh Sargsyan with the U.S. Armenian Diaspora. Serzh Sargsyan listened to the opinions of Diaspora representatives and shared their concerns. 

"In my opinion, the general concern over the Armenian-Turkish Protocols is bit overblown," Oscar Tatosyan said. According to him, before reading the Protocols, people should put their emotions aside. 

"Much of the Diaspora is silent, it means they support the initiative of Serzh Sargsyan," Oscar Tatosyan said, stressing that the Diaspora should openly support the Armenian authorities.
