    President of Armenia Prize Awardee Yuri Barseghov Makes Donation to Families
    of Deceased and Veterans of Artsakh War

    Yerevan, June 11, 2008 - The Moscow-based Armenian Professor Yuri Barsegov
    donated the financial reward of his President of Armenia Prize to the
    Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's Assistance to the Children of deceased and
    First Degree Invalid Soldiers of Armenia and Artsakh project.

    Yuri Barsegov was awarded with the President Prize in the nomination of
    "Persons having made a valuable contribution to the recognition of the
    Armenian Genocide."
    The monetary reward of $10,000 will cover the one-month benefit going to the
    beneficiaries in Armenia and Artsakh.

    In his letter of gratitude to the President of Armenia Mr. Barsegov
    stresses, "My heart was filled with gratitude to be awarded with the
    President of Armenia Prize for my two-volume book called Armenian Genocide,
    Liability of Turkey and Obligations of the International Community, which
    was published with the support of Armenians' Union of Russia. Your
    appreciation inspires confidence that with your leadership we'll manage to
    achieve the international recognition of the genocide and assessment of it
    in accordance with the international law." In his letter he has expressed
    willingness to serve the Armenian people and requested to allocate his
    reward for the above-mentioned project.

    Ara Vardanyan, the Acting Executive Director of the Hayastan Fund
    mentions: "Barsegov's generous deed should set an example for all of us.
    Apart from development projects the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund has been
    assisting our soldiers' families all these years and will continue to do so
    in the years to come."
