THE BASE OF OUR STATE AND SOCIETY
Editorial
Yerkir.am
August 25, 2006
On August 23, 1990 Armenia adopted the Independence Declaration. Our
national dreams and goals were adopted in it.
One year later, through a referendum, the people fulfilled its dream
of independence. Our state has passed a road full of hardships and
achievements in the past years.
Those hardships, however, have not devaluated our most important
achievement - the idea of Independence. Today, we all - the
political leadership, political and non-governmental organizations,
intelligentsia and every citizen of this country - hold in their
hands the goal to make the Independence an irreversible value.
But this cannot be done by words uttered at ceremonies. Unless the
idea of Independence is in the basis of every step every person
makes in his/her life, it would be a mere historic document but not
a lifestyle. In no case there should be any concession in this idea
be it political of psychological.
