conference held at Armenia-Marriott hotel on August 16. Nani Oskanian

with great pleasure. Mrs. Oskanian also expressed regret that the
diplomatic missions of their husbands do not last long. She also added
that notwithstanding this factor, their cooperation will continue in
the future, too.
The exhibition is aimed to represent the identity of the Armenian
women from creative aspects, revealing their ideas, viewpoints and
worldviews.
"We became more interested in the Armenian life thanks to the
Association. We have traveled in Armenia a lot and met with very kind
women and wonderful children. Armenia is experiencing a transitional
period of economic development and we want to help," Mrs. Vohra said.
"Hand in Hand" project initiated by the Association aims at helping
Armenian women and children. While such cultural arrangements involve
the artists in the social sphere, in fact.
The diplomatic mission of Mr. Deepak Vohra, Indian Ambassador to
RA, is completed. A farewell party will be held on August 17. We
express our best wishes and gratitude to Mr. Deepak Vohra and his
wife for especially warm attitude to our country and our language,
in particular.
