ArmInfo.The Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) has a new Chairman. As ArmInfo was informed by the ANCA, longtime Armenian American activist George Aghjayan has replaced Raffi Hamparian, who has led the ANCA for a long time.
"I am deeply honored to take on this role at such a critical time for the Armenian Nation. Our work is more vital than ever as we fight to secure justice for Artsakh's displaced Armenians, hold Azerbaijan accountable for its crimes, and ensure the long-term security and viability of Armenia," Aghjayan commented on his appointment.
It is noted that Aghjayan succeeds Raffi Hamparian, who has led the Armenian National Committee of America with dedication and strategic vision.
