YEREVAN. – ARF Dashnaktsutyun bureau urged Armenians to actively
participate in Hayastan All-Armenian Fund’s upcoming Telethon.

The Telethon will be held on November 28 and will be dedicated
to raising financial support for the construction of the
Vardenis-Martakert Highway.

“This is another occasion for the Armenians to show their joint
efforts in implementing national goals,” says the statement issued
by the party.

The Vardenis-Martakert Highway will be of key economic and humanitarian
importance, says the statement issued by the Fund. By functioning
as a direct road link, the highway will become a second lifeline
between northern Armenia and northern Artsakh, significantly
cutting down travel times, boosting the economies of scores of
Artsakh communities along its path, stimulating inter-community
ties, and vastly improving geographic access for implementing local
development initiatives. Currently the only land-travel link between
Artsakh and Armenia is the Berdzor community, through which passes
the Goris-Stepanakert Highway.
