What: “From Artsakh to Armenia and the Current Situation”

      A lecture in Armenian presented by Gev Iskajyan, Dickran Khodanian and William Bairamian

When: Tuesday, March 5, 2024 at 7:30pm Pacific time

Where: Crescenta Valley Meher & Satig Der Ohanessian Youth Center

       2633 Honolulu Ave. Montrose, CA 91020

Misc: This presentation will center around the political environment that’s taken place

      in Artsakh since 2020 including the blockade, war, and ethnic cleansing. The assault on

      Artsakh went beyond conventional warfare, leading to widespread atrocities and the

      displacement of its indigenous population. Beyond the immediate military engagements,

      this presentation delves into the subsequent ethnic cleansing that shook the very

      foundations of the region. Key themes include the impact on civilian populations, the 

      destruction of cultural heritage, and the broader geopolitical implications of the conflict.

      The topic will also include a brief overview of the currently dismal political atmosphere

      in Armenia with a retrospective of how we arrived here. Ultimately, it is impossible to 

      understand how today’s tragic circumstances came about and how to prevent it in the 

      future without understanding the causes.

      We invite the greater community to attend this free presentation.
