Aharon Adibekyan: The Armenians have a worldwide mission

Armenians have a lot to give, teach, and show to the world.

 

In the absence of statehood, the Armenian traditional family was the foundation for preserving the Armenian nation. Today the Diaspora Armenians are mainly preserved by the family. According to the sociologist, head of the “Sociometer” research center Aharon Adibekyan, if an Armenian family living in the diaspora speak in Armenian, prepare traditional dishes, then the child grows a real Armenian. "Otherwise, everything is forgotten, only the last name remains," Aharon Adibekyan says.


According to Adibekyan, the welfare of Armenian families was in the number of children, and the happiness of the individual was to ensure a prosperous future for the children. “The personal happiness was secondary among Armenians, the Armenian always shared his happiness with his family,” the sociologist notes.


The world goes its own way. The personality is above all in Europe, many people prefer to live without children. In this context, Adibekyan notes that today we are experiencing the most important stage of decision-making. "We are facing the dilemma, either we are a European Christian nation and live according to these nations' criteria, or we are a special nation and we fulfill our mission in a peculiar way," the sociologist stresses.
Adibekyan believes in addition to the national mission, the Armenian people have a worldwide mission. He cites the words of Boris Moishezon from the book "Armenoids; the aristocracy of antiquity," if humanity wants to progress, it must ensure the existence of Armenians, Jews, and Persians.
