President Vahagn Khachaturyan’s congratulatory message on the Annunciation Day, Motherhood and Beauty Day:
“Dear women,
Dear mothers,
Congratulations on the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Motherhood, and Beauty Day.
This day has a deep meaning—it reminds us of the moment when humanity received the good news that gives life and brings hope for salvation. For centuries, our people have seen a symbol of maternal devotion, humility, and strength in the image of Saint Mary.
April 7 is a holiday for us and a day of gratitude to you, women and mothers.
Your love, care, and strength, both in the family and in public life, are the foundations of our state’s strength and harmony.
The maternal image also has a special place in forming our identity. We call our homeland, our language, and our city Mother because it is the mother who brings life, roots, and continuation.
Dear women, mothers, and sisters,
May this holiday bring you peace, warmth, and love.
I sincerely wish you health, happiness, and endless strength to protect and love your families and to have faith in the future.
