Two out of 5 options of the national anthem of Armenia, which have
passed to the second level, are criminal whereas the remaining three
are worth consideration, David Hovhannes, former member of special
committee on national anthem, told reporters today. David Hovhannes
left the committee on August 28 saying that the work did not satisfy
him. He thinks that the committee reaches too quick decisions due
to the urgency to have the national anthem by the 15th anniversary
of the Armenian statehood. "Is this one day worth to impose a song
on the nation for the next 10-15 years?" he raises the question. Two
texts were proposed under the music of Aram Khachatryan, which David
Hovhannes thinks, are a pile of words and not a piece of art. The
author of one of the texts is Arsen Soghomonyan, who supervises a
division at the Ministry of Culture and Youth Affairs. "As a result of
inevitable political trade the parliament will pass "Our Motherland" as
the national anthem," David Hovhannes made this forecast.
