Armenian National Assembly fully adopted the draft law on “Making Amendments to the Law on Holidays and Remembrance Days” submitted by “My Step” fraction MP Rustam Bakoyan, which proposes to establish National Minorities Day in Armenia on the last Saturday of September. : Changes were made in the first to second readings. The last week of September has been moved to the first Sunday of October.
“We have come to a common conclusion that the first Sunday of October should be celebrated as the Day of National Minorities in Armenia. , I think the first Sunday of October is a good time to celebrate National Minorities Day. Why did we change it? We moved it from the last week of September to the first Sunday of October, because every 7 years it is possible that it coincides with September 27. And we can’t celebrate September 27th until we have a corresponding victory,” said Rustam Bakoyan, presenting the project.
