  • HAYK's SPIRIT IS IMMORTAL More Than 4500-Year-Old Roots of The
    HAYK’S SPIRIT IS IMMORTAL Danielyan E. L. Doctor of Sciences (History) ETERNAL GLORY AND HONOR TO THE HEROES AND THEIR COMRADES-IN-ARMS WHO SACRIFICED THEIR LIVES FOR THE FREEDOM AND INDEPENDENCE OF THE FATHERLAND More than 4500-year-old roots of the Armenian Army are hallowed by the freedom struggle of the Armenian nation for the defence of the Fatherland against foreign invaders. The Armenian liberation torch sanctified by Hayk Nahapet (Patriarch) passed over from Hayots Dzor1 to Avarayr, Zeytun, Sasun, Sardarapat and has reached Artsakh. The heroes sacrificing their lives for the liberation of the Fatherland are immortalized. Hayk Lake Van 1 Մովսէս Խորենացի, Պատմութիւն Հայոց, Երևան, 1991, էջ 32-37: The year 2008 marked the 4500th anniversary of the victory of the Armenian Patriarch Hayk against Bel at the battle of Hayots Dzor (on the shore of Lake Van). Thе calendar calculation of the date based on the periodicity of “Hayk’s Cycle” of the “Ancient Armenian era” was done by the famous Armenologist Ghevond Alishan (1820-1901) (Ալիշան Ղ., Յուշիկք հայրենեաց Հայոց, հ. Ա, Վենետիկ, 1920, էջ 85). There was no leap-year in the ancient Armenian era, since a year was always considered to consist of 365 days; hence the year and the date were movable. Thus 1460 years, according to the Julian calendar, amount to 1461 years, according to the Armenian Calendar. By such periodicity of the “Cycle of Hayk”, 2492 BC denotes the year of Hayk’s victory. The beginning of the victorious year was Navasard 1 (=August 11). New discoveries connected with the observations of the starry sky (the 6th millennium BC - Zorats kar (Karahunj), the first half of the 3rd millennium BC - Metsamor), archaeological excavations and petroglyphs in the Armenian Highland, bear witness to the deep Haykian roots, and that the glorious victory of Hayk symbolized the beginning of a very important new epoch of the Armenian history.

During the visit, the delegation received a firsthand look at a region that is vital to both American and international security concerns and aided in reaffirming their longstanding commitment in support of NKR. The delegation participated in high-level meetings and briefings with NKR leaders, including NKR President Bako Sahakian and several cabinet members, Speaker of the National Assembly Ashot Ghoulian, and Members of the National Assembly. The meetings allowed for the two sides to discuss how they may strengthen relations between the State of California and Artsakh while also giving opportunity for US officials to gain insight on issues of diplomacy, security, trade, and Azerbaijan’s refusal to cooperate on reaching a peace agreement despite continuous efforts placed forth by NKR. The evening was highlighted by a Presidential reception for the CA delegation where the children of Artsakh performed heartwarming musical selections for the group. Coincidentally during the CA delegation visit, other foreign delegations were also in NKR, including Canadian Parliament Member Stephane Dion, British House of Lords member Baroness Caroline Cox who was accompanied by ANCA- ER Executive Director Michelle Hagopian, and others.

    MONTREAL UNITED NATIONS CONFERENCE BACKGROUND GUIDE United Nations Security Council 1 LETTER FROM THE CHAIR Dear Delegates, My name is Alex and I will be your chair for the 2020 MUNC UNSC Crisis Simulation. A little about me before we start: In 2017, I started my Model UN career as a wee delegate attending my first conference: MUNC’s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). For the first day or two, I was extremely quiet; I did not raise my placard to speak and definitely did not believe in my abilities as a delegate. However, as time went on and I realised the chairs do not bite as hard as I perceived them to, I began to participate with more regularity. I spoke frequently, passed notes, and spoke as much as I could. For many, this will be your first dabble into the world of Model UN. Let this be a forum to express your interest in world affairs and to showcase your bright ideas for the future. Please do not be intimidated by the others in the room and give it your all! I and the rest of my team will do the best we can to make you feel as comfortable as possible, even if it may only be from behind our screens. The United Nations Security Council is by far the most powerful branch of the United Nations. Use this to your advantage to solve the crisis playing out throughout the weekend. The conflict we have in store for you is one rarely spoken about today, yet still continues on in 2020.

    PHOTOLURE/ Hayk Baghdasaryan The publication became possible thanks to the support of World Federalist Movement/Institute for Global Policy. The opinions expressed in our published works are those of the author(s) and do not reflect the opinions of World Federalist Movement/Institute for Global Policy. YEREVAN, 2021 Introduction The first day of the ceasefire agreement, November 10, 2020, stopped the 44-day aggression of Turkey-Azerbaijan alliance against the unrecognized, small Republic of Nagorno Karabakh. A young woman journalist from Nagorno Karabakh wrote on her Facebook page: “I went to kiss the walls of my Amaras1 monastery, as I know I will never see it again.” That first day of peace, many people drove to visit the Dadivank2 monastery for the last time, to bid farewell to the spiritual treasure that was an inseparable part of their historic, centuries-old identity as Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh. People were confident that in only a few days, they would no longer be able to visit any of their national treasures so dear to their hearts—treasures of intellectual history that they grew up with. The videos broadcast and shared by Azeri soldiers over the internet showed them standing on the Green Church3, taking off the cross, and destroying the bell tower. It left the local Armenian population with very little hope for the preservation of the sites. The newly drawn map had handed over to Azerbaijan the control of these national treasures, dear to their hearts and part of their geographic landscape of historical monuments. As is true for all world nations, the lives of Armenians can’t be separated from their intellectual, cultural heritage.
