Elena Bonner: Heroic Figure for Karabagh

Armenians this month mourn the loss of Elena Bonner, a great humanist and a leading combatant against the injustices of the Soviet era. She will forever remain relevant and inspirational to people worldwide, and to Armenians particularly, because of her forceful advocacy on behalf of the people of Karabagh.

  1. Thanks for the Article ArmenianWeekly.
    Elena Bonner is  truly a heroic, patriotic, fearless humanitarian Armenian woman: an inspiratin to us all, Armenians and non-Armenians alike.

    It is interesting to observe, side-by-side, the level of interest in Mrs. Bonner vs. Mr. Baghdadlian on AW pages.
    It is sad for someone to pass on before their time (Paul).
    May both rest in peace.

  2. A wonderful person who used her voice for good.  She will be greatly missed. 

  3. Avery, I also noticed the difference in comments on the deaths of Paul and Bonner.  There are many possible reasons for this and I won’t speculate except to say, the Armenian soul responds deeply to music….
