On December 22, Malta’s Armenian community unveiled a khatchkar (a
commemorative cross-stone) in the country’s capital, Valletta. The
khatchkar was erected as a symbol of friendship and gratitude to the
people of Malta for the assistance they displayed to the Armenian
people during the difficult times of 1375 and 1915.
Participating in the opening ceremony were members of Malta’s
Armenian community, Valletta city mayor and other high-ranking
Maltese officials.
