STEPANAKERT, 10.12.08. DE FACTO. In connection with the anniversary
of the NKR State Independence Referendum and the Constitution Day the
NKR President sent a Congratulatory address to the Republic’s citizens.

According to the information DE FACTO received at the Central
Department of Information of the Office of the NKR President,
the address reads as follows: "Respected citizens of the Nagorno
Karabagh Republic, Dear compatriots, The tenth of December is one
of the most memorable days for our people. On very day in 1991 our
people officially sealed their will to form free, independent and
sovereign state. And it was not a coincident that 15 years later on
this very day of 2006 the people of Artsakh once again expressed their
resoluteness to further strengthen and develop independent statehood
and on a nation-wide referendum adopted the basic of the country –
the NKR Constitution. It has marked the irreversibility of our state
policy to build democratic country, our commitment to the follow
international norms and integrate with the civilized world.

The basic law of the country is among the attributes of independent
statehood. It guarantees rights and freedoms of people and citizens,
regulates internal life of the state and its relations with the
world. It is a specific bridge between the past, the present and the
future of the=2 0country and its people. The Constitution clearly
states that independence and secure existence of Artsakh have no
alternatives.

Dear friends, I congratulate all our people once again on this
very important holiday and cordially wish you peace, good health
and happiness.

All the best to you."
