History and profile

Armenpress was founded on 18 December 1918^[4] by the government of the First Republic of Armenia as the Armenian Telegraph Agency (Հայաստանի հեռագրական գործակալություն).^[4]^[5] Simon Vratsian played a major role in the establishment of the agency.^[4] After the Sovietization of Armenia in 1920 it was renamed to Armenkavrosta, and subsequently known as Armenrosta and Armenta. It was renamed Armenpress in 1972.^[4] During the Soviet period, from 1920 to 1991, it served as the "official sanctioned source of public information", operating under direct control of the Armenian Communist Party.^[6]

Armenpress collaborates with Reuters, TASS (Russia) and Xinhua (China).^[3] It is a member of the Black Sea Association of National News Agencies.^[5]

Many neologisms coined by Armenpress have entered the Armenian language.^[7]

On 24 May 2022, Armenpress and Télam news agency signed a cooperation agreement in Buenos Aires, Argentina.^[8]
