history

Alik initially appeared as a weekly newspaper and from 1935 every two days. Due to the high demand, the newspaper came out daily from 1941 and has been a daily newspaper almost continuously ever since. On the eve of the Islamic revolution in January 1979, however, the newspaper's employees, like other factories in Iran, stopped work for 40 days. Since then, Alik has appeared daily again. Key editors of the newspaper included Hovsep Tadeosian, Jervand Hairapetian, Andre Ter-Ohanian, Hovsep Hovhannissian, Tatschat Poghossian, Baghdik Minassian, Arsen Mamian, Hrair Chalatian, Edward Jeritsian, Edvard Ghahramanian and Norair Elsajan.

In March 2004, Derenik Melikian took over the management of the editorial department, which he still holds in 2017.

Alik is close to the Armenian Revolutionary Federation . In the times of Soviet Armenia she was in opposition to the Soviet Union and advocated the independence of Armenia. Since Armenia became an independent state, it has campaigned for a strengthening of Iranian-Armenian relations. The main topics of the newspaper are, besides general topics from politics, economy, art and sport, in particular the Armenians in Iran , the Armenian diaspora and the state of Armenia, about which nothing can be found in other newspapers in Iran and what makes them an essential source of information for the Armenian community of Iran makes. Alik has had a website since January 23, 2001 , where the content can be found about an hour after the editorial deadline.
