Nor Haratch(Armenian:Նոր Յառաջ) is anArmeniannewspaper based inFrance.It was initially published twice a week (every Tuesday and Friday). In 2010 it started to be published thrice a week (every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday).
Nor Haratch was founded in 2009 in response to the closing of the independent dailyHaratch,the longest-running French-Armenian publication, founded by Schavarch Missakian in 1925 and continued by his daughterArpik Missakiansince 1957, whose last issue appeared with the date May 30–31, 2009.
Five months afterHaratchceased publication, a group of intellectuals started the publication ofNor Haratch(literally New Forward). A limited liability company was established as owner. The first issue ofNor Haratchwas published on 27 October 2009. The editorial staff included Haroutiun Gobelian (Executive Editor), Jiraïr Tcholakian (Director of Publication), Nora Barout gian and Aram Kerovpyan,[1]and correspondents in Armenia and the Middle East. With its new, independent staff, administration and ownership,Nor Haratchshould be considered a separate new publication, rather than a continuation of the historicalHaratch.
