"Dear compatriots,
I cordially congratulate the personnel of the NKR Defense Army,
veterans of the Great Patriotic and Artsakh Liberation wars as well
as our whole people on the Motherland Defender’s Day.
This day is a holiday for the Artsakh people as it was our generation
to defend in arms our native land and open a new chapter in the heroic
history of our people. The glorious victory of Shoushi, which was
won by blood of our sisters and brothers, has been added to those of
Avarair, Sardarapat and the Great Patriotic. Eternal glory and honor
to them.
The younger generation now continues with honor the immortal work
of their fathers and grandfathers. They have mastered lessons
of patriotism and courage and today keep firm the borders of the
Fatherland. Due to high fighting spirit and preparedness the NKR
armed forces are considered the main guarantee of our independence
and security as well as play an important role in maintaining peace
and stability in the region. Artsakh is strong and invincible by its
heroic people and efficient army.
Dear friends,
I congratulate all of you once again and wish you robust health,
happiness and all the best. May our people always live in peaceful,
strong and prosperous Fatherland."
