Khachkar Studios states that it is “a multimedia studio empowering Judeo-Christian Faithful through a good news Biblically inspired world-class benchmarking and management excellence ‘Framework’.” Khachkar Studios is an affiliate of the Charles & Agnes Kazarian Foundation. The foundation, in turn, is a philanthropic affiliate of Japonica Partners, an American multinational private equity firm (hedge fund) based in New York and headed by Paul Kazarian who formerly worked for Goldman Sachs. His grandparents were Charles and Agnes Kazarian; who escaped the Armenian genocide. BTW – why did you ask about Khachkar Studios? The company’s logo/banner doesn’t seem to appear in any of the Yerevan May Day photos accompanying the article.

In cities across the globe, millions of workers came to the streets in record numbers, to stand up to their billionaire rulers. In Armenia, by contrast, May Day is a fake, unenthusiastic, top-down public worship of corporate power and exploitation. The windy man is the perfect image of the population of Armenia today. BTW, What is Khachkar Studios? Its nonsensical prose is hard to decipher. What does it stand for? What is its agenda? Where does it get its money from? A bit of investigative journalism might be insightful.
