    The Day of the Republic of Armenia was traditionally marked on the
    margins of the 37th International Book fair in Buenos Ayres.

    Addressing more than 1 000 participants of the gathering, Armenian
    Ambassador to Argentine Vladimir Karmirshalyan noted: "Creation of the
    Armenian alphabet in the 5th century was perhaps one of the remarkable
    events in the 3 000-year history of the Armenian people. Thanks to
    that the Bible was translated into Armenian, a number of books were
    published, which comprise the most valuable part of our cultural
    heritage."

    Ambassador Karmitshalyan noted also that it was symbolic that two
    sister-cities - Buenos Ayres and Yerevan - were chosen as World Book
    Capital of 2011 and 2012 respectively. "Yerevan will organize a large
    international book exhibition next year. Books published in Armenian
    and foreign languages will be displayed. Argentine will be represented
    in a separate pavilion," the Ambassador noted.

    Forty-two states and 1 500 publishing houses participate in the 37th
    International Book fair in Buenos Ayres.
