Aliq Media is a news and analytical media outlet that features breaking news, reliable sources, critical thinking, responsible opinion, and a fresh look at global and national politics. The team develops multimedia content and produces interviews, programmes, and other visual formats.

Aliq Media is a newcomer in the Armenian media landscape. The new digital era, fake news, and long-lasting war period for Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno-Kharabakh Conflict) demand reliable sources of information and unbiased coverage.

The newsroom comprises well-versed professionals who deliver accurate and analytical information on events happening at local, regional, national, and international levels. The organisation has also established a culture of op-eds written by well-known journalists and editors.
