Declaration of NKR Independence September 2, 1991, by Nagorno Karabakh
people has become a turning stage in the history of all Armenians,
NKR President Arkady Ghoukassyan, said in his today’s speech at the
Third Plenary Session of All-Armenian Forum "Armenia-Diaspora".

According to him, the main value of the acquired independence is the
belief in own forces, a belief that the tasks set can be effectively
solved by joint efforts. The Diaspora, together with Armenia, is
solving today a very serious task of the international lobbing of
Nagorno Karabakh. Effectively implementing large-scale investment
projects, the Diaspora and Armenia have increased the NKR economy to
a qualitatively new level, A. Ghoukassyan said.
