On Friday 18 June, Harpik Missakian, editor of the
historical newspaper Haratch, died at 89 years old. She had succeeded her late
father Shavarsh Missakian in 1957, the founder in 1925 of the famous daily
newspaper in Armenian. Arpik Missakian said "I will remain faithful to my
father's vocation. I will continue publishing the newspaper in Armenian for as
long as I am alive. I will not change it into a French-language Armenian
newspaper."
In 2009, because of a constant drop in readership, she
decided to stop publication of "community lighthouse" in France.
His death marks the end of the era of the pioneers of the
Armenian press.
