The creation of the radio in 1895 changed a lot in our life. The radio reached Armenia in 1926, and this year the Public Radio of Armenia celebrates the 89th anniversary.

Speaking on the threshold of the Radio Day (May 7), Armen Amiryan, Executive Director of the Public Radio of Armenia, said “today the Public Radio is both a cultural haven and classic media.

Armen Amiryan does not share the opinion that with the creation of television, radio lost its role and importance. “Technically the Public Radio is more accessible to public,” he told a press conference today.

The Executive Director said “we use all possible modern technologies to make the Public Radio accessible to listeners and readers.” These include the three-language website, social networks, mobile applications, etc.

During a press conference, Mr. Amiryan also said we have to do everything possible to make sure Azerbaijani radio stations aren’t broadcast in Artsakh.
