On the occasion of the of the 20th memory day of the 27 October terrorist act, Vazhen Sargsyan’s first goddaughter Ani Khachatrian, member of Yerevan Council of Elders, visited the Yerablur Pantheon.

“Vazgen Sargsyan had the most contact with Karen Demirchyan after the “Unity Alliance,” and it was the best alliance in the history of the Republic of Armenia and the only hope for the future of this state, which was interrupted on 27 October. It was the result of an order from outside forces with domestic participation, because I do not think that Robert Kocharyan, Serzh Sargsyan and the people in power at that time would be able to do it themselves,”Ani Khachatryan said.
