A 100-meter-long Armenian tricolor flag symbolizing the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide was waved on the summit of Ararat in memory of the innocent victims of the Armenian Genocide, Srapion Gevorgyan, Chairman of the “Tigran Mets” Charitable Foundation, reports from Western Armenia. “As it was planned, the group of pilgrims reached the peak of the mountain on July 29 and waved the symbolic 100-meter-long tricolor there. Then they stood in a circle and honored the memory of the victims with 100 seconds of silence. Also, “Karin” Song and Dance Ensemble headed by Gagik Ginosyan danced a roundelay on top of Ararat. The pilgrims descended from the heights of Mount Ararat on Saturday evening,” Mr Gevorgyan said.
