Yerevan, 2 September. Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan has made an
address in connection with the 18th anniversary of the proclamation
of the Nagornyy Karabakh republic's (NKR) independence.

and, what is the most important, citizens who define there fate
independently. We have a state that is putting into practice ideals
of democracy, sovereignty and freedom, and that is progressing
and developing its economy and culture, and is defending peace,
despite of all objective and artificial difficulties and ordeals,"
the Armenian president stated.

concerning the peaceful settlement of the Karabakh problem will be
made with the consent of the people of Karabakh and on the basis of
free expression of their will," the Armenian president stated.
