Today President Serzh Sargsyan today presented state awards to
representatives of the fields of literature, music, painting,
architecture and urban development, whose works were named the best.
President Sargsyan congratulated the prize winner and expressed his
appreciation for the fact that the award ceremony has already become
traditional.
"It’s a very pleasant responsibility for me to express gratitude
and to say words of appreciation to people who develop our culture,
those who have managed to create enduring works.
Of course, time is the most important judge, but we – the
contemporaries – have to value the people who manage to give new
breath to the centuries-old traditions of our culture."
President Sargsyan said it was time to establish two new awards in the
fields of exact and natural, as well as the humanitarian and public
sciences. According to the President, the prize money will doubled
next year.
