Imperative of day

People often ask why foreigners try to fake up our history and we only
try to protest against it. We should realize that in many foreign
countries branches like culture, education and science are adjusted to
governmental needs and policies.

It is these policies and foundations but not individuals that act
against us. These institutions shape not only their knowledge of
history but also arrange foreign countries in the niches they find
appropriate to their interests.

Our neighbors, having unsettled territorial disputes with us, develop
anti-Armenian science projects and relevant policies. Namely, our two
neighbors, Turkey and Azerbaijan develop scenarios denying the right
of Armenians for existence on our lands and on the map that today’s
Armenian republic covers.

In terms of informational globalization, the false images of Armenia
appear in international instances and undermine our international
position. Thus, the imperative of the day is to use our cultural,
scientific and informational facilities for strategic response to
those mutilations.
