Armenian people on a national holiday – the Independence Day. The
congratulation message of the Armenian PM says: «Dear compatriots, I
congratulate you on the Independence Day of Armenia. Having chosen the way
of independence on 21st of September 14 years ago, our people fulfilled the
dream of its ancestors. Independence is first of all perception of national
dignity. The past years have shown that uniting around the idea of
independence, we can win in any battlefield and overcome many ordeals and
difficulties. Paying tribute to heroes, who sacrificed their lives to
independence and building our independence step by step, we should not
forget the challenges our young statehood has faced. To overcome these we
should unite, protect our state from upheaval, «saviors», who rate their own
interests higher than anything and constantly look at foreign states. Their
urge to please foreign states has unfortunately have had sorrowful outcomes
in our people’s history. There is much yet to be done on the way of building
a democratic, civil society. The most important – there is sufficient will
and potential to do it. We have already made noteworthy progress in forming
the army, in economy, that are important guarantees of sustaining the
achievements of 14 years and attaining national values in the future. I
again congratulate all of you and wish you good mood.»
