New documentary video on Armenia released (video) July 30, 2014 - 10:53 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - A new documentary video, “Armenia, Ancient Nation Endangered” produced by Eva Medzorian was released early this month, Asbarez reports. The documentary exposes the escalating danger confronting Armenians residing in the villages bordering the Northeastern corner of Armenia and Azerbaijan, a four hour drive from Yerevan in the Shamshadin area of the Tavush province, clustered around the central town of Berd. Portrayed by first-hand documentary videos coupled with a brief history of Armenia over the past 2000 years, Medzorian tells a moving story of Armenia, an ancient nation with a rich Christian heritage, constantly under persecution by its neighbors, yet through the tenacity of its people, surviving throughout centuries. She commented, “Over the past four decades I have visited Armenia over 60 times and witnessed the country during the Soviet period and post-independence. I have travelled to border villages and seen the hardships and dangers confronting the people, especially on the hostile Azerbaijan border. I felt it was time to tell the story as it truly is. To ensure accuracy of historical and modern aspects, I consulted with noted Yerevan expert historian Eduard Danielyan.” Photo: Asbarez Related links: Top stories The EU does not intend to conduct military exercises with Armenia, Lead Spokesperson for EU Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Peter Stano says.
