TO PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL NATIONAL COUNCIL,

FATHER, ARCHBISHOP VAHAN TOPALIAN,

GENERAL SECRETARY, MR. NERSES NERSESSIAN,

EDUCATIONAL CORRESPONDENT, MR. ANTRANIG LEPEJIAN

Dear compatriots,

We express our deep gratitude for properly organizing the presentation of the play “Komitas: Eternal Traveler” for our sisters and brothers in Amman, for receiving the actors with open arms and for covering all the necessary expenses.

Today, more than ever, drawing the world’s attention to the crime committed in the early 20^th century, awakening the conscience of all mankind and recognizing the genocide has become an imperative. Therefore, it would be impossible to evaluate the importance of presenting the play devoted to the Great Komitas embodying the image of the innocent martyrs ahead of the 99^th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.

We are pleased to have compatriots like you who attach importance to the strengthening and expansion of the Armenia-Diaspora partnership, the preservation and development of Armenian culture and the cultural identity, the reinforcement of national unity and are always ready to participate in all our initiatives.

Once again, we express our words of gratitude to you, wishing you force and vigor to continue your pro-national mission and achieve greater heights for the longevity of the Armenian nation and the Homeland.

Sincerely,

HRANUSH HAKOBYAN
