After the independence of Armenia in 1991, the scope of AGBU’s operations in Armenia expanded dramatically to support the country socially and economically. Having already established an office in Yerevan a year prior, the initial goal was to provide the nation with resources needed in its early independence, including access to telecommunications and industry expertise. Under the leadership of AGBU President Louise Manoogian Simon, among the many major achievements was the founding of the American University of Armenia in 1991, the first U.S.-accredited institution in the former Soviet Union. Projects devoted to cultivating an active cultural life also represented a significant part of the organization’s efforts. Subsidies to individual artists, theater groups, and music ensembles, notably the Armenian Philharmonic Orchestra, all helped to create a sense of normalcy in the midst of instability and political turmoil in the young republic.

On October 3, Bulgaria returned the remains of King Samuel after more than a thousand years—transporting them from Greece to Sofia with special state honors and placing them in a marble sarcophagus in the Basilica of Saint Sophia. According to medieval primary sources and scholars Nikoghayos Adontz and Hovhannes Ivanov, Samuel had partial Armenian ancestry; accounts say his mother, Hripsimia, was an Armenian noblewoman and the daughter of King Ashot II of the Armenian Bagratid dynasty. Bishop Tatev Hakobyan—Primate of the Armenian Diocese of Romania, Locum Tenens of the Armenian Diocese of Bulgaria, and Pontifical Delegate to the Balkan countries—and Kevork Krigoryan, Director of the AGBU Varna office, attended the historic ceremony by official invitation. Additionally, Shoghakat TV interviewed Krikoryan about the event. 🎥: @shoghakat.shem See More: 🔗 Link in Bio -> Click Link
