On the occasion of the Republic Day a congratulating address was
issued by the Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin II, which says, in
particular,

`Dear people of Armenia,

We confer our blessing to all ` Armenia, Artsakh and Diaspora ` and
congratulate you on the Republic Day.

Due to the glorious victories in May 1918 the first Republic of
Armenia was created. It was the realization of the centuries-long
desire for freedom and independence.

Having regained its independent statehood due to the struggle of the
brave, belief and unity, the Armenian nation is aspiring to have the
motherland flourish through creative life and new initiatives.

We pray the God to grant peace to the whole world and bestow fervor
and power to our people.’
