As ARMENPRESS was informed from the Office of the Prime Minister, the congratulatory message runs as follows,

”Dear women, mothers, sisters and daughters,

Proud citizens of the Republic of Armenia,

Please accept my heartfelt congratulations on Motherhood and Beauty Day. We are celebrating this beautiful holiday in a challenging time of hardships and uncertainties.

Nowadays many of our mothers, daughters, wives and sisters bear the burden of economic, psychological and domestic difficulties arising from the crisis and face unexpected challenges. The crisis has exacerbated the long-standing problems, putting our mothers, daughters, wives and sisters in a particularly vulnerable position, but the Government is working hard to address the bottlenecks arising from the crisis.

However, especially in these conditions, I feel it worth mentioning that motherhood and beauty are by far beyond simple praise and admiration. We believe that the power of motherhood and the energy of beauty will help us overcome the crisis. Motherhood and beauty also stand for leadership, and today we praise the creative power of motherhood and beauty, the energy to mobilize the nation and the ability to move forward.

Today, many health workers – mothers, daughters, wives and sisters – are fighting against the novel coronavirus. Many mothers, daughters, wives and sisters continue their teaching mission in the context of distance learning. Many mothers, daughters, wives and sisters carry on with lifeline public, economic and social activities.

Motherhood and beauty are symbols of victory, and I am sure that in the light of the current challenges, this holiday symbolizes our future victories.

Dear mothers, daughters, wives and sisters,

Proud citizens of the Republic of Armenia,

We love you all, we are proud of you and bow to you!”

The message reads:

“Dear women,

This year I want to congratulate you on the Motherhood and Beauty Day with a special warmth and love.

I want to address my special congratulations, wishes and words of gratitude to female doctors, nurses which during these difficult days are providing care in line with the medical care to the patients in hospitals.

I also want to express my gratitude to all those women, be they police officer, military officer, rescuer or serviceman, who endanger their life and health these days for us all due to their work, profession, to those women whose husbands do not come back home these days from hospitals, service and workplace as they are fulfilling their duties.

A woman, and especially the Armenian woman, has always been the pillar of the family, taking the whole burden and difficulties. Now, when most of the people have to stay at home due to the current situation, a woman’s burden and housework has further increased conditioned with the organization of daily family life, remote learning of kids and grandchildren, economic issues, etc. But the Armenian woman has never been depressed and has always managed to stay firm, believing that each difficulty is passing.

Dear women,

Spring is always full of expectations and hopes. But in this year’s holiday congratulations, maybe the external shine and form are a little more restrained. But believe that our love and gratitude to you never change.

Because, dear women, life starts from you and continues with you.

Be healthy, happy and live long”.

Armenian ombudsman congratulates women on Motherhood and Beauty Day

Armenian Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) Arman Tatoyan congratulated women on the Motherhood and Beauty Day celebrated in Armenia on April 7, wishing them robust health, success and many reasons to smile, as informs Panorama.am

The congratulatory message reads:

“With the one-month awareness campaign ‘Be a Role Model’, we’ve shown stories of women who have succeeded in business, management, military service, and so on.

Each of these stories is an example of breaking stereotypes, overcoming difficulties and fears. These stories also show how women successfully combine home and career.

These success stories should continue to inspire all of us.

I consider the mission of my work to promote equal opportunities for women, their participation in decision-making and getting rid of fears and stereotypes.

All opportunities should be created for a woman to enjoy her motherhood carelessly.”
