President Armen Sarkissian of Armenia on Saturday chaired the 30th meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund.
"As Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund, President of the Republic of Armenia, a donor to the fund and an Armenian, I feel pain for the words of distrust and reactions. I expect that the results of the relevant studies will shed light on the situation and will help build an atmosphere of trust,” Sarkissian said.
“The All-Armenian Fund must do everything possible to correct the mistakes and restore the confidence,” he stated.
The president noted that the 30th meeting of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund is being held in a difficult period “full of trials and challenges”, referring to the war unleashed by Azerbaijan against Artsakh, the military aggression against the sovereign territory of Armenia, as well as the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Wishing tenacity to the families of Armenian captives and missing soldiers, the president pledged to make every effort to get back the captives and find the missing.
Sarkissian stated that the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund needs modernization. "It is necessary to adopt a new mindset, widely use new technologies and find new organizational models," he noted.
The president thanked all compatriots, donors and benefactors, wishing productive work to the participants.
Among the issues on the agenda of the meeting is the report on the targeted use of funds raised during the “We Are Our Borders; All For Artsakh" campaign and donated to Armenia under nine contracts from 8 October to 1 November 2020.
