Turkey has SUPPRESSED aspirations of tens of millions of #Kurds.

Turkey JAILS political dissidents & journalists.

As Armenian hostages remain imprisoned in Azerbaijan, a new humanitarian initiative launched by Veronika Zonabend, the wife of Ruben Vardanyan, is seeking to deliver messages of solidarity from around the world to those being held in detention.

The campaign aims to ensure that Armenian hostages remain connected to the outside world and know they have not been forgotten, while providing a channel for supporters to express solidarity with those still being held in captivity.

According to Zonabend, maintaining such connections is essential to preserving the dignity of those being held.

“It is an attempt to restore at least a minimal connection between those in detention, their families, and all those who care about their fate. Such a connection helps a person preserve their dignity, and without dignity, it is impossible to speak of genuine and lasting peace between neighbouring peoples,” she said.

Over the next two weeks, organizers will collect letters of support and seek to deliver them alongside family care packages as part of the humanitarian initiative.

Letters may be submitted in any language by email to [email protected] with the subject line: “Letter of Support – Armenian Detainees.”

Those writing to a specific hostage are asked to include the individual's name in the subject line.

Zonabend also announced that the names of the women who will participate in the delegation responsible for delivering the letters and care packages will be made public at a later date.

The forced displacement of the Shahumyan region is one of the significant and painful episodes in the modern history of the #Armenian people. It should be viewed not merely as a separate military event, but as part of the broader process of the depopulation of Northern #Artsakh, which unfolded amid the political, military, and ethnic tensions of 1991–1992.

Historically, Shahumyan was one of the regions with an Armenian population, where stable communities, educational, cultural, and public institutions had been formed. During the collapse of the Soviet Union and the escalation of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, the #Armenian settlements of the region came under direct pressure, military operations, and the threat of forced displacement.

The “Operation Ring” campaign carried out in 1991 became one of the key stages of this process. During the operation, with the involvement of Soviet forces and #Azerbaijani special units, armed actions, pressure against the civilian population, and forced displacements were carried out in a number of Armenian settlements. These events created the preconditions for the subsequent depopulation of Armenian settlements in Northern #Artsakh.

In June 1992, military operations against the Shahumyan region led to its complete depopulation. Thousands of Armenians were forced to leave their homes, lands, historical memory, schools, churches, and cemeteries. The displacement became not only a humanitarian tragedy, but also a manifestation of a policy of dispossession and deprivation of homeland.

The events in Shahumyan are important for several reasons. First, they demonstrate how an ethnopolitical conflict can turn into the mass displacement of a population. Second, the depopulation of #Shahumyan shows that the consequences of war are not limited only to military losses; they also include the risk of losing cultural heritage, community life, and historical identity. Third, these events remain an important source for the study of forced displacement and historical memory in the region.

These days, the forced displacement of Shahumyan is remembered as an important fact of the forced displacement and dispossession of the #Armenian population of Northern Artsakh.

azerbaijan issued a statement condemning the burning of the turkish flag in Yerevan, on the eve of the Armenian Genocide Day.

The same azerbaijan BURNED hundred of Armenians with white phosphorus bombs, many charred to death or with wounds that never heal…

Images circulated by Azerbaijani social media users appear to show damage to the Saint Nerses the Great Church in occupied Martuni, with the structure’s cross torn down and its windows shattered.

The church, consecrated in 2004, was built with funding from philanthropist Alice Ohanian and is dedicated to the prominent Armenian Catholicos, St. Nerses the Great.

The reported incident follows claims over the past month that Azerbaijani forces have destroyed significant Armenian religious sites in occupied Stepanakert, including the Holy Mother of God Cathedral and Saint Hakob Church.

April 24 is Armenian Genocide Memorial Day. The genocide was not an isolated tragedy. It remains a diachronic warning.

In my latest article (Sunday Mail @cyprusmail 26.04.2026), titled “April 24: Memory, Justice, and the Responsibility of ‘Never Again’” — dedicated to the memory of Arman Kirakosian —

I argue that the #ArmenianGenocide was a precedent. What followed across the 20th & 21st centuries—including the Jewish #Holocaust … different contexts, different actors—reveals a recurring logic: a catastrophic human toll & crimes against humanity that, left unaddressed, corrode legal & moral order, fuel grievance, & return as instability, displacement, & conflict that no state can fully contain.

Genocide is not spontaneous. It is a process—beginning with language, dehumanisation, exclusion, before violence begins.

“Never again” is not a slogan. It is a responsibility.

Aurora Mardiganian was fourteen when her life was torn apart by the Armenian Genocide. She endured death marches, captivity, and atrocities designed to erase her people.

She escaped, reached the United States, and refused silence. Through her testimony and the film Auction of Souls, she exposed what the world preferred to ignore. Her story is not just survival. It is proof of a crime the world failed to stop.

The global Armenian population is estimated at 8–11M, with only 2.9M living in Armenia. This makes the Armenian diaspora one of the world's largest and most influential—a legacy of trade, migration, and the 1915 Genocide.

@noliquid Единственно верный ответ дадут потомки - стоило ли сохранять украинскую нацию и государственность или надо было раствориться в русской империи, как десятки других этносов.

Например, я безмерно благодарен моим предкам, которые ценой своих жизней позволили мне быть армянином.
