The presentation of Aspram Tsarukyan's book, entitled “Hello! How are you? All right?…”, took place in Aram Khachaturian House Museum on April 6. The book tells about Monte Melkonyan, a legendary commander of a detachment of soldiers-liberators.
Armenian Minister of Diaspora Hranush Hakobyan said that Monte came to his Fatherland to prove that the danger threatening the Fatherland demolishes all borders. “He has become a live bridge connecting Armenia with the Diaspora. Due to his personal features and the spirit of a warrior, he, together with Armenian soldiers, managed to liberate the Armenian land from the enemy,” the Minister stressed.
She also noted that Aspram Tsarukyan, the book author, has succeeded in her works. Hranush Hakobyan congratulated the mothers of soldiers-liberators on the occasion of the Holiday of Maternity, adding that first of all they are heroes, as they have brought up heroes for the Fatherland.
Armenia’s Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan said in his speech: “I knew Monte Melkonyan personally that is an honor for me. I remember his words: “If we lose Artsakh, we will turn over the last page of the Armenian people’s history.” He was struggling for Artsakh and was one of those commanders, who always were at advanced positions and could lead soldiers. We have won the liberation Artsakh war due to the triple joining of Artsakh, Armenia and the Diaspora.”
