President Vahagn Khachaturyan’s congratulatory message on Annunciation Day - the Day of Motherhood and Beauty

Dear women,

Dear mothers,

My warmest congratulations to you on the Annunciation Day of Saint Mary, Holy Mother of God, which we also celebrate as the Day of Motherhood and Beauty. Mary’s motherhood was a divine miracle and the message of these holidays is the merger of the human and the divine, for the woman that becomes a mother resembles God as the creator of a new life.

For mankind, the concept of “mother” is the union of devotion, safety, kindness and limitless love. It’s not a coincidence that we name our homeland Motherland, our language – Mother tongue, and call our capital Mayraqaghaq (Mother city), for it is impossible for us not to value our wives, mothers, sisters and daughters just the way we can’t renounce our motherland and our language.

Dear women,

I once again congratulate you on this holiday, and from the bottom of my heart, I wish you sound health, endless love, the joy of motherhood and all the best.
