In words of Astghik Gevorgian, the Chairman of the Journalists'
Union of Armenia, this year prize winners were chosen for journalist's
mastery, arising modern problems and touching them upon. In his words,
the genre of publicism, which has an important meaning in journalism,
is today gradually being disappeared from the press. And G.Ananian

led by nobleness and principles." The Gold Pen competition of the
