    NKR President welcomed the All-Armenian Pilgrimage Participants `Today,
    we need unity and solidarity more than ever. Only in this way we can
    solve numerous problems that our two republics face. The history of our
    nation has proved more than once that we have no other way out. It is a
    call of the times and the basic guarantee of our victories', the NKR
    President Bako Sahakian stated in his welcoming speech at the meeting
    with participants of the All-Armenian pilgrimage to Artsakh, under the
    motto `Forward to God, Armenia', which started in the Holy See
    St.Echmiadzin on May 1. The Head of State noted with satisfaction that
    most pilgrims were young Armenians from different parts of the world.
    `This is the best evidence that unity is one of the main peculiarities
    of our nation. Throughout their history, the Armenians overcame all the
    difficulties with honor, when they were united. This unprecedented
    initiative comprises elements of this significant unity, which
    symbolizes a firm link among republic-society-church. I am also
    satisfied with the circumstance that our soldiers and the Defense
    Ministry actively participated in organizing this All-Armenian event',
    Bako Sahakian said. The All-Armenian pilgrimage participants (500
    people) organized a meeting `One Nation, One State, One Faith' in
    Shoushi. The leader of the Artsakh Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic
    Church Archbishop Pargev Martirossyan blessed the pilgrims in
    St.Ghazanchetsots Church of Shoushi. The Archbishop mentioned that
    Shoushi is the place of pilgrimage for all Armenians. `We have
    liberated Shoushi under the motto `One Nation, One State, One Faith'
    and namely under this motto we have to continue our national struggle',
    Artsakh's spiritual leader said.The pilgrims visited the Stepanakert
    Memorial Complex and then returned to Yerevan.
