MOSCOW — President-elect George Bush’s son and grandson will travel to Soviet Armenia on Christmas Day to help distribute American aid to earthquake victims, Soviet officials said Friday.
Soviet Foreign Ministry spokesman Gennady I. Gerasimov said that John Ellis Bush and 11-year-old George Prescott Bush “will participate in a ceremony of transferring to Armenia relief aid from the United States.”
The aid will include medicine, medical equipment and toys for children who survived the Dec. 7 quake that killed at least 55,000 people. They are scheduled to arrive on Christmas Day and plan to stay in the country six to eight hours, a U.S. Embassy source said.
