YEREVAN—On the third day of their visit to Armenia, the Kardashian sisters visited the Dzidzernagapert Armenian Genocide monument and laid wreaths at the eternal flame, in memory of the 1.5 million victims of the Armenian Genocide.
Kim Kardashian, who is traveling with her husband Kanye West and their daughter, North, was accompanied by her sister Khloe and cousins, Kourtni and Kara, at the Dzidzernagapert Memorial Complex.
Earlier in the day, Grammy Award-winning musician Kanye West visited the Tumo Center for Creative Technologies, where he met with the young Armenians who attend the center’s programs.
On Thursday, the Kardashian entourage visited the Monastery of Geghart, after taking a stroll in Yerevan, where they took the escalators at Cascade up to the Mother Armenia statue.
Kim and Khloe also met with Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan, who welcome them to Armenia. The sisters told the prime minister that they would fight for the international recognition and condemnation of the Armenian Genocide and pledged to learn the Armenian language.
The Kardashians arrived in Armenia Wednesday for an eight-day stay in the country, which is being taped for episodes of their popular E! Network reality show, “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.”
seriously – who cares? why is this news?
I believe Kardashian will have a political career opportunity in Armenia!
they are doing good for us- forget their tv bull-they are Armenian and know us-God Bless
Please don’t use this difficult word …
I am Armenian and I can’t pronounce
“Tsitsernakaberd”
There are no many touchy, poetic letters in English to give it exact sound …
It is not time to teach people our words
It is time to tell our pains
our lost clever grandfathers…
Our sad stories heard in childhood years…
our lost relatives
our lost lands
Our famous mount Ararat …Still stands in the hands of savages
with its white peak like our good hearts…
Call it “ETERNAL FIRE of the GENOCIDE”
Which its flames must reach every site
Even to the far other planets…
To tell the world
How savage Seljuk-Turks betrayed us–––
A nation builded for them…Palaces …Mosques… Minarets…
I keep asking… “where is god how he betrayed as …???

“ETERNAL FIRE OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE” IN YEREVAN, ARMENIA
Please don’t use this difficult word …
I am Armenian and I can’t pronounce
“Tsitsernakaberd”: in Eastern Armenian and Dzidzernagapert: in Westren Armenian…
There are no many touchy, poetic letters in English to give its exact sound …
It is not the time to teach people our poetic, imaginative words…!
It is time to let them to recognize our pains
About our lost clever grandfathers…
Our sad, sarcastic stories heard in our childhood years…
Our lost relatives
Our lost lands
Our destroyed Churches…Cathedral Schools…of 2600 of them
Our famous mount Ararat …
Still stands in the hands of savages
With its white peak… like our honest hearts…
Call it “ETERNAL FIRE of the GENOCIDE”
Like many poets and painters wrote
Mary Zakarian and others…
The flames of it must reach every site
Even to the far~far planets …arid deserts
For the birds to hear our voice and sing with us…
To return our lands
We want to tell the world
How savage Seljuk-Turks betrayed us–––
A nation builded for them…
Palaces …Mosques… Minarets…
I keep asking…
Where was our god for whom we builded so many homes
and nothing left today …to anyone to pray there…?
