Today is the 8th of May. As the fates decree, May became the symbol of
unity and victories of the Armenian nation.

The 8th of May became breaking in the Karabakh war. The liberation of
Shoushi on May 8, 1992 inspired confidence to the Armenian soldiers,
reinforced their belief in their own military victories and made the
liberation of NKR irreversible. Today and tomorrow we celebrate the
days of Victory and peace. During the past 16 years May 8th has been of
dual importance for the Armenian people ` as the day of victory in the
Great Patriotic War and the liberation of Shoushi.

`The whole Armenian nation was participating in the military actions of
liberation of Shoushi. Armenians from Armenia, Artaskh and Diaspora
were participating in the struggle not only with weapons, but also with
moral and material support. There were also Russian volunteers,’
co-author of the `Hrazdan’ military operation, Colonel-General Gurgen
Dalibaltayan said. According to him, in those heroic battles no one was
thinking that he could be killed, although 35 people were killed during
the liberation of Shoushi.

Colonel-General Gurgen Dalibaltayan then occupied the position of the
Chief of General Staff of RA Armed Forces. He considers that if the
possible enemies of the Armenian nation once again try to contact with
the defense forces of our country, they will meet a strong resistance.

`Aggression will be silenced wherever it comes from. The Armenian Armed
Forces are ready to resist any blow, since they have a high level of
operational readiness,’ the Colonel General said.
