DENVER CO \u2013 In an official proclamation, Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper declared December 6, 2015 as the 10th Anniversary of Djulfa Destruction \u2013 joining global commemorations of Azerbaijan\u2019s genocidal destruction of 2,000 Djulfa (Jugha) khachkars, reported Armenian National Committee of America \u2013 Western Region<\/a> (ANCA-WR).<\/p>\n

Gov. Hickenlooper\u2019s proclamation memorializes \u201cthe deliberate destruction of the world\u2019s largest collection of medieval khachkars at Djulfa; [which] has been documented by the American Association for the Advancement of Science.\u201d The proclamation further mentions that \u201cthe State of Colorado commemorated the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide this year by unveiling a Capitol khachkar memorial, a replica of one of Djulfa\u2019s 2,000 destroyed monuments\u201d and that \u201cColoradans are encouraged to visit the State Capitol and view the replica Djulfa khachkar.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cColorado once again demonstrated its unwavering commitment to human rights,\u201d remarked ANCA WR Executive Director Elen Asatryan. \u201cGovernor Hickenlooper\u2019s authorization and unveiling of the Colorado State Capitol Khachkar on April 24 was a staunch expression of support to the 1.5 million victims of the Armenian Genocide as well as an unprecedented tangible action to restore a piece of medieval Armenian culture lost in a genocidal destruction. We are so proud that Colorado\u2019s Armenian community has become such a vibrant voice in their state\u2019s democratic process and are grateful to Governor Hickenlooper for his strong leadership and commitment to issues important to our community and human rights advocates worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Proclamation will be read by Colorado\u2019s Douglas County Public Defender and Djulfa descendant Ara Ohanian later today at the Shine a Light on All Genocides candlelight vigil and program in Denver, organized by Armenians of Colorado (AOC) in partnership with ANCA-Colorado, the Colorado Coalition for Genocide Awareness & Action, and the Consulate General of Armenia in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

December 2015 marks the 10th anniversary of Turkic Azerbaijan\u2019s genocidal destruction of 2,000 medieval khachkars, when the army of Azerbaijan utilized heavy technology to conduct an operation against helpless cultural monuments. Despite the fact that the destruction was caught on tape and further documented with satellite evidence, Azerbaijan continues to deny the existence of and the destruction of Djulfa. The destruction of Djulfa was the final step of carefully-planned and executed wipeout of Nakhichevan\u2019s indigenous Christian heritage in line with official historiography in Azerbaijan that claims Armenians did not live in that region until the 19th century. This is often seen as a continuation of Turkey\u2019s pan-Turkic genocidal policy against indigenous Armenians, which started with discrimination then organized massacres and ethnic cleansing, followed by denial and destruction of physical evidence, and is one of the reasons why the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (Artsakh) has argued that any rule by Azerbaijan over it would be tantamount to genocide.

Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper receives ANCA Freedom Award<\/strong><\/p>\n

DENVER, CO \u2013 Earlier today, the Armenian National Committee of America \u2013 Western Region (ANCA-WR) honored Colorado Governor John W. Hickenlooper with the organization\u2019s highest recognition \u2013 the prestigious Freedom Award \u2013 for his resilient leadership and dedication to and tangible achievements for Armenian Genocide awareness and human rights.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am honored to be recognized by ANCA Western Region in the Centennial Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide,\u201d remarked Governor Hickenlooper upon receiving the Freedom Award from ANCA-WR Executive Director Elen Asatryan. \u201cThank you to the Armenian community for diligently working for genocide and human rights awareness to educate and empower all Coloradans and Americans.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Mr. Hickenlooper graciously accepted the Freedom Award presented by ANCA WR Executive Director Asatryan at the end of the meeting that took place earlier today at the Governor\u2019s office in the Colorado State Capitol Present at the meeting were also ANCA-WR\u2019s Simon Maghakyan and Tatev Oganyan, ANCA-Colorado co-chair Jirair Christianian, and ANCA-Colorado advisor and former state Senator Lois Tochtrop, Armenians of Colorado (AOC) Board President Sona Hedeshian, AOC Centennial Committee chair Anahid Katchian Logue, Consul General of the Republic of Armenia in Los Angeles Sergey Sarkisov, and Deputy Consul General Artak Galstyan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are deeply grateful for Governor Hickenlooper\u2019s strong leadership and ongoing commitment to forcefully defending and advancing issues critical to Armenians worldwide,\u201d remarked ANCA-WR chair Nora Hovsepian, \u201cas well as his staunch support for the proper recognition of the Armenian Genocide and the Armenian Memorial Garden on Colorado State Capitol grounds in memory of those who perished in 1915. Our recognition of Governor Hickenlooper is a testament to ANCA\u2019s growing commitment to recognizing and empowering the commendable work of all of our communities and their devoted supporters throughout the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group also took the opportunity to thank the Governor for proclaiming December 6, 2015 as the 10th Anniversary Commemoration of Djulfa and his unwavering support of issues important to the Armenian community. Discussion topics during the meeting also included recognition and teaching of the Armenian Genocide, recognition of Artsakh\u2019s Independence and right to self-determination as well as support of Syrian refugees, the recent initiative of eliminating double taxation between the United States and Armenia, and potential partnership between Colorado and Armenia and Artsakh.<\/p>\n

Past recipients of the ANCA Freedom Award include former U.S. Ambassador to Armenia John M. Evans, United States Ambassador to the United Nations and Pulitzer Prize winning author Dr. Samantha Power, U.S. Senator Robert Menendez, the late U.S. Senator Edward M. Kennedy, former U.S. Senator Robert Dole, former U.S. Senator Elizabeth Dole, and former Deputy Speaker of the House of Lords Baroness Caroline Cox.<\/p>\n

A native of Pennsylvania, John Hickenlooper has been the Governor of Colorado since 2011. He is a lifetime entrepreneur who ran as a \u201cdark horse\u201d to become Mayor of Denver in 2003. He led the campaign to pass FasTracks, the largest regional transportation initiative in U.S. history, and helped convince the 34 metro mayors (2\/3 Republican) to unanimously support and pass the 0.4% sales tax increase at the ballot. He recruited top managers to his cabinet from business and wherever he could find them. In eight years he had streamlined the total workforce by 7%, the first such reduction in Denver\u2019s history. In 2005 TIME Magazine named him as one of the five top big-city mayors in America. When he was inaugurated Governor of Colorado in 2011, having run on his history of collaboration for community good, he became the first Denver mayor to be elected governor in 150 years. He also became one of the first geologists to become a governor in the history of the nation, and the first brewer since Sam Adams in 1792.<\/p>\n

Despite his business background, Governor Hickenlooper has also devoted considerable attention to human rights issues. In 2014, on the 150th anniversary of the Sand Creek Massacre, he became the first governor to recognize and apologize for the 1864 mass murder of several hundred Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians in southeast Colorado, and has since launched a campaign to memorialize the massacre with a permanent memorial on the grounds of the Colorado State Capitol, not far from the Armenian Genocide Memorial Garden. In 2015, when most US governors expressed opposition to accepting Syrian refugees, Governor Hickenlooper became one of the few state executives to speak in support of welcoming Syrians fleeing the ongoing civil war.<\/p>\n

Mr. Hickenlooper\u2019s support for the Armenian American community spans over a decade. As mayor then governor, he consistently issued Armenian Genocide proclamations. In 2012, Governor Hickenlooper authorized a proposal by Armenians of Colorado (AOC) to install a khachkar memorial on the grounds of the state capitol\u2019s existing Armenian Memorial Garden. On April 24, 2015 \u2013 the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, he became the first US Governor to unveil the unprecedented Colorado State Capitol Khachkar. During the unveiling that was attended by hundreds of Coloradans, Governor Hickenlooper expressed \u201chope that those who come to the Capitol will make sure that the khachkar is on the itinerary of every school group\u2026 And hopefully these kids will be inspired to renew the fight against bigotry in their own lives, whether it is speaking out on an act of bullying on a schoolyard or organizing action against genocide in Africa or some parts of Asia.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gov. Hickenlooper\u2019s latest support for the Armenian American community was expressed on December 6, 2015 \u2013 the 10th anniversary of the destruction of Djulfa khachkars, one of which was replicated for the Colorado capitol. In the first ever gubernatorial declaration on Djulfa, Governor Hickenlooper memorialized \u201cthe deliberate destruction of the world\u2019s largest collection of medieval khachkars at Djulfa; [which] has been documented by the American Association for the Advancement of Science,\u201d and stated that \u201cColoradans are encouraged to visit the State Capitol and view the replica Djulfa khachkar.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to the presentation of the Freedom Award, the December 7 meeting included a discussion of issues of concern to the Armenian American community, including genocide education and trade opportunities between Colorado and Armenia. The meeting with Governor Hickenlooper followed a Sunday, December 6 Shine a Light on All Genocides candlelight vigil and program, organized by AOC in partnership with ANCA-Colorado and other community organizations, during which nearly a hundred individuals, including public officials and dignitaries, came together to conclude the Centennial Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in Colorado.<\/p>\n
