Yerevan (Yerkir) - "On the way of its development and state
construction, the Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR) follows the
principles of establishing good neighborly relations and peaceful
co-existence with the neighboring countries. We are sure that any
disputes must be settled by exclusively peaceful means, through a
direct and sincere dialogue. At the same time, even any weakening of
the NKR's independence and security is out of the question. There can
be no bargain about these exceptional values," NKR President Bako
Sahakyan's congratulatory message on the occasion of the Nagorno
Karabakh Republic Day, reads.
"The very first day it was formed, our country had to resolve serious
problems, first of all, defend its independence and security of its
citizens. Together with Mother Armenia and the Armenian Diaspora,
Artsakh was able to accomplish that mission with credit, retaining
its independent statehood and consolidating its security. That was
possible to the combined efforts and unity of the Armenians. Many
sons of the Armenian people sacrificed their lives to defend their
Homeland. Honor and glory to the heroes!" says the message.
"After the war, the country faced new challenges, economic ones. The
destroyed economy had to be rehabilitated, and solid foundations
for the state's further developme nt had to be laid. Due to the
Armenians' creative power and thinking, optimism about the future and
the Artsakh people's boundless energy, the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic
was able to accomplish those tasks in a relatively short space of
time. Our country is now steadily developing, registering growth in
almost all the economic sectors. The population's living standards are
rising. Our state has a democratic system that meets the international
standards. Artsakh is one of the most important factors in maintaining
stability in the region, and its international recognition is a matter
of time," President Bako Sahakyan stated with confidence.
According to the presidential message, the NKR Defense Army, the main
guarantor of security of the state and people, "is capable of giving an
effective rebuff to any encroachment on our independence and security."
"However, much has yet to be done. We must resolve problems facing
our country through our daily and laborious work, consistently
strengthening our native land," the message says.
