"The authorities of Artsakh are steadfast"
This holiday is important and memorable for all people of Artsakh, as everyone has had his personal contribution to the formation and development of our independent statehood. Of course, we still have a lot to do both in the field of foreign policy and in the socio-economic sphere," said President of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Bako Sahakyan in his congratulatory address on the occasion of Independence Day of the Artsakh Republic.
However, according to him, "one thing is distinct and irreversible: the people and authorities of Artsakh are steadfast and firm in the realization of national goals and will do everything possible for building a radiant future for the Artsakh Republic."
"The Motherland always keeps bright the memory of its sons who sacrificed their lives in the name of free and independent Artsakh. Eternal honor and glory to our martyrs!
The 2nd of September is also a holiday for our compatriots in Armenia and the Diaspora. Due to their joint efforts the ancient Armenian Artsakh still exists and continues flourishing and prospering," said Bako Sahakyan.
Dear compatriots, I congratulate all of us once again on this holiday of utmost importance and wish peace, robust health and all the best."
