Artsakh Revival Day marked February 20
On 20 February in connection with the Artsakh Revival Day, NKR
President Bako Sahakyan partook at the meeting with the NKR National
Assembly deputies of all convocations and delivered a welcoming speech
there, the central information department of the office of the NKR
President reported.
"Many of our friends have laid down their lives for victory of these
ideas. Eternal glory and honor to them!
20 February of 1988 became the starting point of our national revival.
We stood to defend our natural right for free and independent life on
our native land, for mastering our own destiny independently and in
accordance with international norms and principles. Azerbaijan reacted
to our peaceful and just demand with cruel and bloody war, which
caused heavy human sacrifices and devastations," President's address
reads.
B. Sahakyan highlighted that the heroic people of Artsakh together
with world spread Armenians managed to withstand all the ordeals and
chose the path of building a democratic state. For us this way has
been irreversible and final.
"We are very much confident that every problem the contemporary world
faces can be solved exclusively in civilized manner, around the
negotiation table through direct dialogue. In contrast with this the
authorities of Azerbaijan continue to wage militaristic policy keeping
their own people in a situation of permanent tensions and the danger
of war resumption. These threats are vain and inappropriate. We have a
regular and efficient army that is ready to give a fitting rebuff to
any encroachment upon the security of our state and people," President
said.
Addressing everyone present, B. Sahakyan said, the NKR National
Assembly of all convocations has played a great role in building an
independent statehood, forming state institutions and consolidating
democratic values. "Soon there will be new regular elections of the
NKR National Assembly. For our people it is a political event of
utmost importance. And we should do everything possible for these
elections as always to be carried out in correspondence with
international standards and take us a step forward Ïn the way of
building a firm and prosperous future of Artsakh," Bako Sahakyan said.
