THE 18-th ANNIVERSARY OF DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE TODAY

Today President Serzh Sargsyan has addressed a congratulatory message
to Armenian people in the view of 18-th anniversary of Declaration of
Independence.

The message says:

`Honorable compatriots, on 23 august, 1990, the Supreme Council of
Armenia adopted the historical declaration, paving the way for our
independence and restoration of national state.

This was the expression of willpower of Armenians who were determined
to struggle for their human and national dignity in Armenia, Artsakh
and elsewhere. The Declaration of Independence is the first legal
document which returned us to the international family of states.

Congratulations on this symbolic anniversary, which really makes us
attach importance to our past and become united for the future
achievements of our country.’
