WASHINGTON, SEPTEMBER 28, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. A celebration
dedicated to the 14th anniversary of the independence of the Nagorno
Karabakh is invited at the building of the House of Representatives
of the US Congress in Washington on September 28.
According to Radio Liberty, Baroness Caroline Cox, the Deputy Speaker
of the House of Lords of Great Britain is the guest of honour of
the event titled “Progress towards Liberty, Democracy and Economic
Development.” Senators Frank Palone, Joe Nollenburg, Adam Schif,
George Radanovich and others will make speeches.
The Embassy of Armenia in the US, the Hai Dat Office in the US
(Armenian National Committee of America), the Office of Nagorno
Karabakh Republic in USA and Palone and Nollenburg, the Co-Chairmen of
the Congress Committee on Armenian Issues, organized the celebration.
Hayk Gugarats, the Speaker of the Embassy of Armenia in the US
doesn’t consider as accidental holding of such a celebration just
in the building of the Congress as “still in 1989 when Armenia and
Nagorno Karabakh weren’t independent yet, the Congress made a decision
supporting the struggle for independence of Armenia and Nagorno
Karabakh.” “And it continues the assistance to Karabakh. The US is the
only foreign country which assists to Nagorno Karabakh officially. This
shows that the existance of Nagorno Karabakh, its efforts for the
international recognition are accepted by Congressmen,” he emphasized.
