On May 2 in Stepanakert President Bako Sahakyan met with the
participants of the pilgrimage which started in St. Echniadzin and
ended in Shushi, at Ghazanchetsots Church. Several hundreds of people
participated in the pilgrimage.

In his greeting the president underlined that he was happy to see that
most pilgrims were young people from different parts of the world. `It
is vivid evidence that unity is one of the typical features of the
Armenian people,’ the president said.

The head of state said the Armenian people won victories only when they
came together.

`It is notable that our azatamartiks, as well as the representatives of
ethnic minorities of Armenia participated in the pilgrimage,’ Bako
Sahakyan said.

`Today we need unity more than ever,’ the president repeated.

The pilgrimage was organized by the Pan-Armenian International Youth
Center and the Spiritual and Cultural Rebirth, as well as a number of
youth organizations and student boards.
