Ruben Jaghinyan on the symbol of forget-me-not (video)
The National Assembly continued to discuss on Friday the report of the 2013 state budget execution report. A number of ministries today presented the activities carried out at their agencies. Today, the lawmakers mainly focused on cultural issues. Ruben Jaghinyan, chairman of the Council of Public TV and Radio Company of Armenia, tried to support the idea of a forget-me-not as a symbol of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Jaghinyan said he had participated in the discussions and was satisfied with the proposed symbol. “I like the ideology and the shape of the flower. I do believe that the logo is unique and will find its place,” he said. The choice of the symbol caused uproar after it became known that it resembles the symbol for International Missing Children's Day.
