/PanARMENIAN.Net/ For each of us, Independence Day is a good occasion
for contemplating the history of our statehood, its achievements and
challenges. Such retrospective look is an opportunity to think about
future tasks and outline future programs, RA Prime Minister Tigran
Sargsyan says in his congratulatory address devoted to the 18th
anniversary of Armenia’s independence.

`Today is also a day of pride for each of us. Gaining independence is
not enough; it is necessary to maintain and strengthen it every day
and do all our best to make the century-old dream come true. We all
must be proud that Armenia, our homeland, is becoming strengthened
thanks to our people’s permanent efforts. This period is really of
historic importance. Present-day world brings us face to face with new
challenges. And I am sure we’ll be able to overcome them thanks to
unity and devotion. Dear Compatriots, brothers and sisters, 18th
anniversary is considered to be the threshold of full age. And the
independent Armenian statehood is today crossing that threshold. I
address my special greetings to our children, the =80=9Cgeneration of
independence’ which was lucky enough to be born in free and
independent Republic of Armenia,’ RA Premier stressed.
