ARMINFO NEWS AGENCY 14 YEARS OLD
YEREVAN, MARCH 31. ARMINFO. One of the leaders of Armenia’s
information market, the ARMINFO news agency (former SNARK), is 14
years old.
Set up in 1991 by a group of highly professional journalists as an
alternative to official propaganda SNARK survived the blockade
hardships of the early 90s – when its personnel was working without
electricity and elementary working conditions – and the financial
problems of the late 90s – when the agency was on the verge of
bankruptcy.
Reformed into ARMINFO in 2001 the agency is now a worthy participant
in not only national but also CIS and foreign information markets due
to its timely coverage of key political and economic events of its
country. ARMINFO has very wide international ties supplying
information to the biggest world news agencies and databases. ARMINFO
is proud of its many year partnership with most of national newspapers
and TV companies. Since 1993 the agency has been one angle of the
South Caucasian information triangle – ARMINFO (Armenia)-TURAN
(Azerbaijan)-BLACK SEA PRESS (Georgia).
On its birthday the staff of the independent news agency ARMINFO
thanks all its partners and subscribers for their confidence and
fruitful cooperation.
