What has Minister of Diaspora done during the last year? "We have
separated song from dance,"- says Hranush Hakobyan.
Hranush Hakobyan hasn't been satisfied with it, she has organized a
festival of poetry and duduk, has brought many young Diaspora Armenians
into Armenia with special mission, "They learn about their homeland,
they love it and decide to remain Armenians."
Within the frames of Armenia-Diaspora 5thconvention Hranush Hakobyan
finally formulated her demands from Turkey, "I have a demand also
for unborn children. If our 3 million stayed, today we would be
25 million."
The next achievement of the Ministry is to inform Diaspora Armenia
who our greats are. 600 million AMD from the state budget to the
Ministry has been necessary even in this case, "See, if in 2014 we have
considered Komitas, Siamanto, Tumanyan, Arshil Gorki as our greats,
in 2015 they will be Daniel Varuzhan, Hamastegh and Andranik."
Minister Hranush Hakobyan has been busy in 2014, "The Ministry
has received 63312 letters and I have read all, we have written 47
thousands letters, I have read them."
Why was the construction of "New Aleppo" district, which started in
2013, left unfinished, when initially 52 million AMD were provided
for that? Why aren't there new investors in this project? Hranush
Hakobyan says, the state has presented 50 ha territory to 600 Aleppo
Armenians, what else can it do?
Each of us must invest 2-3 dollars, thinks Hranush Hakobyan. Wasn't
it possible to direct the money from "Come home" and many other
conventions to this project? "The whole our budget will be enough
only for 10 flats,- says the Minister.- What can we do, let's close
the Ministry, I agree."
Mrs. Hakobyan can turn to the investors and ask, but she can't force
them, people don't invest for Aleppo Armenians: "No one is our employee
so that I can force or order them, we only ask whether they will do
or not."
