“Hraparak” daily writes:

The most discussed episode of Sunday’s motorcade and concert Anna Hakobyan was the revelation. He announced in February that their civil marriage was over, he was leaving the government mansion, and told a heartbreaking story about his bitter life.

And on Sunday, people saw her silhouette in her husband’s morning dress, in the government office, and then she participated in the event in Gyumri. Holding Pashinyan’s hand, he walked in the city, ignoring journalists’ questions. And, contrary to the promise that he would give up “Akhranniks”, he was walking around accompanied by PPS employees. They left the question “reunited” unanswered.

We were informed that even Pashinyan’s teammates did not dare to clarify this. We were told that they found out 1 week ago that Anna had returned to the government mansion. And in what capacity, they don’t know. They are also puzzled by this theater of the couple.

After the show split, various hypotheses were discussed. The most common is that Pashinyan is trying to get rid of Anna Hakobyan’s negative rating. Now they think that the reason is that the “My step” foundation headed by the lady continues to engage in charitable activities unhindered during the pre-election period.

Gohar Ghumashyan, a breadwinner, was arrested for a telephone conversation, while Anna Hakobyan generously gave charity and was not punished.

April 24 remains a day of remembrance for the victims of the 1915 Armenian Genocide for every citizen of Armenia, every Armenian.

Along with this, along with the historical tragedy, we are facing a new ontological danger.

● Occupation of sovereign territory and military aggression

As of February 2026, Azerbaijan’s armed forces illegally control more than 240 square kilometers of Armenian territory in Jermuk, Vardenis, Sisian, and Goris regions. Heavy military equipment is located right next to civilian settlements and civilian infrastructure, creating a direct threat to the lives of thousands of people.

● Ethnic cleansing of Armenians in Artsakh

In 2023, more than 100 thousand Armenians were forcibly expelled from Artsakh. International organizations have documented the blockade, bombings and organized ethnic cleansing.

● Denial of Armenians’ right to exist at the state level

The “Western Azerbaijan” project promoted by the Azerbaijani government is, in fact, a claim to the entire territory of Armenia. This demand is accompanied by rhetoric of hatred towards Armenians, dehumanization and open calls for the abolition of Armenian statehood.

● Destruction of Armenian cultural heritage

Armenian churches, khachkars, cemeteries and historical and cultural monuments are systematically destroyed in the occupied territories. This is a classic manifestation of cultural genocide with the aim of erasing the historical traces of Armenians.

● Hate propaganda at the state level

Enmity towards Armenians is systematically instilled in Azerbaijan’s school programs, state media and official statements. This creates the ground for new crimes.

The international community is silent, but we are obliged to speak out about these problems.

Today, some parts of the territory of the Republic of Armenia are already bleeding: Jermuk, Verin Shorzha, Nerkin Hand, Tigranashen, Verin Voskepar, Sofulu and Barkhudarlu.

The circle around Armenian statehood is tightening, we must prevent this danger today, keeping Armenia and the Armenian people away from new disasters.

Former Chairman of the Investigative Commission A. Kocharyan, responding to Onik Gasparyan’s initiative to hold a meeting in a closed format in the National Assembly, noted that they do not see the point of meeting the proposal. “Onik Gasparyan answered questions in the investigative commission for two days, and this is included in the report. He gave all the explanations and also presented his considerations. What does he want now?”, said the CP member.

Expected response. Okay, what is stopping Onik Gasparyan from meeting with various interested groups in an open format, to speak publicly?

CP is “slamming the door”, as expected, and those who are interested in the topic have been waiting for clarifications for years.

If Gasparyan’s goal was the discussion with the participation of CP, it is very bad. If he has something to say to society, interested parties, he has no right to delay.

Have you declared, have you expressed your readiness, have you decided to speak after 6 years of the war? Speak, but with a condition, outside of emotions, propaganda and your own “I”.

Gagik Tsarukyan’s regional meetings are turning into popular press conferences.

Without formalities, without fakeness, without trying to like each other. And in every village, you understand how many questions are accumulated among our compatriots, our people, how many questions and problems there are in the minds of our brothers and sisters, how many unsaid feelings.

The whirlwind in which these meetings pass is indescribable. I have seen many election campaigns in my working life, but this is different. I have never seen such sincerity, such volume of concerns, such tension and ease.

During these days, I realized that this is no longer a classic campaign and it shouldn’t be. This is a meeting of people who are able to look each other straight in the eye, which turns into a popular press conference in a few minutes.

We set ourselves the task of making the “Offer to Armenia” program a popular program that is about people and is written by real people. And now, in every village, in every settlement, a popular discussion of the popular program is taking place.

The conference organized by the initiative group “Proposal to Armenia” under the title “Armenian Genocide and the changing region” was held.

111 years later, the Armenian Genocide remains a painful issue of unrestored justice. It is not only an integral part of our historical memory, but also one of the important pillars of our national security.

This is the open wound of our people, which obliges us to remember, speak up and consistently demand justice. We have no right to forget our history.

We must continue to strengthen national consciousness and unity for the sake of justice and for a dignified future.

Gagik Tsarukyan
