The US President's clamorous speech of April 24 in which he called the Armenian Genocide by its Armenian equivalent "Mets Yeghern", cannot naturally suggest that changes have been introduced in the foreign policy of the USA. Neither can we say that Obama was suddenly smitten with love for the Armenian people. Everything is much simpler: orally equaling the Holocaust with the Armenian Genocide, President Obama actually deprived of juridical estimation the events of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire. Considerably much time will pass until the Holocaust and Mets Yeghern become equivalent in the legal aspect.

On April 11, the Armenian Apostolic Church (AAC) begins to celebrate the Easter, one of the six patronal festivals. From sunset till late night all the churches of the Armenian Apostolic Church serve Liturgy that marks the end of Lent and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The celebration of the dead and resurrected god dates back to the ancient Egyptian religion, when the Egyptians celebrated the death and resurrection of God Osiris. Present Christian Easter takes its origin from the Old Testament. The old Jews celebrated the Passover (Pesach) as the holiday of exodus of Jews from Egypt.

The impact of the world financial crisis on the Armenian economy and social state of people has already become perceptible, especially in the population employment sector. The alarm has already sounded for a number of employment agencies: employers' offers are decreasing in ratio with the increasing labor supply.

The year of 2008 was also a time of reformatting the South Caucasus Region. After the «five-day» war of Georgia against South Ossetia it became clear that new division lines were to be outlined in the region. No doubt unwilling to do it himself, President of Georgia made a «regal» present to RF that had long been waiting for an opportunity to gain revenge against the USA for the too profound an interference it had in the solution of Caucasus problems. The result was a much more chaotic bedlam in which even the most «skillful» states were unable to "catch a fish".
