To every Armenian heading to the polls on June 7 —

Your vote is not just a ballot. It is the voice of a nation that has survived genocide, war, and betrayal — and refuses to be silent.

Vote for the Armenia that fights back. Vote for the Armenia that stands tall. Vote Number 17.

Միասին կարող ենք։

[ARF Western USA @arfwest]

Two days. One number. 17.

June 7 is not just an election — it is a reckoning. The Armenian people have earned the right to demand accountability, to demand sovereignty, to demand a government that does not negotiate away their homeland piece by piece.

The Hayastan Alliance is that demand made into a vote.

#17 on June 7. Միասին կարող ենք։

[ARF Western USA @arfwest]

On June 7, history will be written in Armenia.

The Hayastan Alliance —#17 — is an organized, principled opposition that has never wavered: not after the 44-day war, not after Artsakh’s fall, not after every concession that followed. That consistency is not just political, it is a covenant with the Armenian people.

Cast your ballot for Number 17. The diaspora is watching. The homeland is counting on you.

Միասին կարող ենք։

Մենք ունենք կամք՝ կոտրելու այս պարտությունների և անարժանապատվության շղթան: Եկեք թույլ չտանք, որ բովանդակազրկվի մեր հայրենիքը

Former President Robert Kocharyan, the prime ministerial candidate of the Armenia Alliance, delivered a forceful rebuttal to several of Nikol Pashinyan’s central political narratives during a wide-ranging televised interview, challenging the government’s claims on democracy, corruption, the army, Artsakh, and Armenia’s foreign policy failures.

May 28, 1918 reminds us that even in the shadow of Genocide, the Armenian People chose life, struggle and statehood.

At Sartarabad, Bash Aparan, and Gharakilisa, our ancestors proved that the will of the Armenian people is unconquerable. It was on that will that our republic was built, and it is the same will that sustains our Diaspora today.

Today, we again stand at a fateful moment. Artsakh had been lost, our statehood faces grave challenges, and the voice of the Armenian people must be heard across the world.

We, the diaspora Armenians, are the heirs of Sartarabad. Our struggle continues, for Armenia, for the Armenian identity, and for our national dignity.

The spirit of May 28th is not history. It is our inheritance and our mandate.

Happy May 28th.
For Identity and Statehood.

We stand with #Armenian hostages unjustly held in Baku. #Azerbaijan must release all verdicts & legal justifications now. Furthermore, #Armenia’s Human Rights Defender (@OmbudsArmenia) must use every diplomatic/legal channel to obtain full texts of indictments, final rulings. - ALC Chair @ken_hachikian

On the eve of Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day. As our community gathered in solemn vigil, AYF Montebello Chairman Arapo Demirjian delivered a moving address, reminding us of the weight of this moment and the responsibility we carry as a people.

On April 24, 2026, in remembrance of the 111th year since the Armenian Genocide, the Armenian Youth Federation Western Region organized a march to the Consulate General of Turkey in Los Angeles. Our youth continue the struggle for justice through remembrance, action, and unwavering commitment to Armenian national rights.

[ARF Western USA @arfwest]

Armenian Youth Federation @ayfwest rallied outside the Turkish Consulate in Los Angeles as the Armenian Community marks the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, calling on Turkey to recognize the crimes committed against the Armenian people. Despite overwhelming historucal consensus and recognition by a multitude of nations and international bodies, Turkey continues to deny one of the 20th century's most well-documented atrocities – a denial that deepens the wound for survivors' descendants and diaspora communities worldwode. The Armenian Youth Federation's demonstartion is a reminder that the pursuit of truth and justice does not fade with time.

[ARF Western USA @arfwest]

April 24 is an immovable fixture. Join us at the Genocide Monument in Montebello at 10:30AM — then march with us to the Turkish Consulate in Beverly Hills at 2PM. What began in 1915 will not end until it is confronted. Show up.

On the occasion of the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, the Social Democratic Hunchakian Party, the Armenian Revolutionary Federation and the Armenian Democratic Liberal Party (Ramgavar Azadagan Party) reaffirm their commitment to remembrance and the pursuit of justice.

The Armenian Genocide remains a crime that has not yet been acknowledged by its perpetrator Turkey, the consequences of which continue today through the genocidal policy pursued by Turkey and its partner Azerbaijan against Artsakh.

To this end, the Armenian Genocide remains the issue that unites us as Armenians. We continue our coordinated efforts to achieve a just solution for the rights of the Armenian people through reparations.

We reaffirm our commitment to unity in service of our common goal, and in that spirit, we have come together this year to commemorate the anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, not only to remember the tragic events, but also to elevate the resilience and unwavering will of our people.

We encourage purposeful and coordinated action to advance the Armenian Cause.

We are confident that through united efforts, we will revitalize our community, engage and empower our youth as future standard bearers for the collective aspirations of our nation.

We demand that the President of the United States, in light of the recognition of the Armenian Genocide by both Houses of Congress, use the word “genocide” in his annual message.

We once again call on our community to unite around the structures of our nation, to protect our rights, values, and demands, starting April 24. Our Martyrs demand it.

[ARF Western USA @arfwest]

111 years. One Community. One Demand: Justice

Each year, we gather not merely to mourn, but to affirm that the lives taken, the villages burned, and the civilization nearly erased will never be forgotten. On the 111th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, the ANCA-WR is proud to join the United Armenian Genocide Commemoration Committee in honoring the memory of our martyrs and renewing our commitment to truth, justice, and the dignity of the Armenian people. Join us on April 24th in Montebello and Beverly Hills.
