An exhibition marking the 144th birth anniversary of Aram Manukyan, a devotee of the Armenian national liberation movement, a public figure of the First Republic of Armenia, the founder of the newest Armenian statehood and an ARF party member, launched at the Stepanakert Palace of Culture and Youth in Artsakh on Wednesday.

The exhibition was organized by the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sport of the Artsakh Republic, Artsakhpress reported.

Artsakh's Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sport Norayr Mkrtchyan delivered opening remarks at the event.

"Today, being present at the event dedicated to the 144th anniversary of the birth of Aram Manukyan, the founding father of the First Republic of Armenia, and talking about his heroic life, whose geography stretches from Baku to Kars, from Van to Yerevan, we can implicitly confirm that Aram Manukyan has left for us and the future generation a message of the greatest national bio-moral importance, that is, to rely only on our own strength, never to be discouraged, to continue the struggle for freedom and independence until the victorious end," the minister noted.

The exhibition runs for two weeks.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
