CIS RADIO STATIONS MAY BROADCAST SOCIAL ADVERTISING AGAINST XENOPHOBIA
Yerevan, June 21. ArmInfo. Yerevan "Radio VAN" created a special
social advertising raising the problem of the fight against xenophobia,
specifically, the national hostility toward Armenians.
The advertising was distributed to different radio stations in Russia.
"Radio VAN" Program Director Gor Grigoyan, more known as presenter
Yegor Glumov, told ArmInfo the social advertising was sent to 200
radio stations throughout the CIS, including 180 in Russia. He
said the advertising has a wide response among foreign colleagues,
many of whom supported the initiative. G. Grigoryan said the idea of
creating the social advertising originated after Moscow Government
resolved to erect a monument for a dog at Moscow Underground. To
note, the model Uliana Romanova stabbed the aforementioned dog with
nickname "Malchik" ("Boy") to death in public. The employees of Moscow
Underground were taking care of the dog for a long time. G. Grigoryan
is indignant at the positive attitude of Moscow Government to homeless
animals simultaneously with the negligence of a series of murders
of Armenians in Moscow. In the social advertising entitled "Mother
named me Khachik" the presenter Yegor Glumov says the following:
"I am Khachatur. Khachatur Vardanyan. Mommy named me Khachik after my
grandpa, who I have never seen. He was killed in 1942 near Moscow,
and I was killed in 2006 in Moscow. For the last 10 years, over one
thousand of Armenians were killed in Russia. Is it war? "
