Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan made a congratulatory address on
the occasion of Victory and Peace Day. The address is as follows:
"Dear Compatriots, Distinguished Veterans, I congratulate you on
the occasion of Victory and Peace Day. We have been celebrating this
holiday, which is delivered by the heroic deeds of our fathers and
grandfathers, for years. This victory brought long-awaited peace to
Armenia which endured so much tragedy. This victory opened new doors
for progress; it opened new horizons for bringing up an educated and
healthy young generation - a generation which is true to the vows of
its forefathers and which will build a new Armenia.
For the Armenian nation, World War II was the Great Patriotic War
indeed. Both Armenia and the Spyurk gave whatever they could. On
various fronts and in the rear, in resistance movements and guerrilla
squads, dedication and heroism of the sons and daughters of our
nations covered their names with glory. May 9, 1992 once again became
a symbol - this time of the Armenian triumph, the symbol of resolve
and immortality.
Now and ever, we will be celebrating wholeheartedly our glorious
victory; this is victory of good over evil and barbarity. With the
liberation of the historical capital of Artsakh, the Armenian soldier
has become a new perception and a new factor. Those, who stepped into
immortality on the battlefield, carry on with their great mission as
moral and political force.
The liberation of Shushi was a break through which showed first to
us and then to the rest of the world what stands for "the Armenian
who learned the lesson". We silenced, and if need be will silence
again all those fire spots from where our children and our parents
were shot. However, I hope that it will not be necessary: our troops,
who are guarding peace of our Fatherland, hold the greatest promise
that it will not happen again.
Dear Compatriots, I once again congratulate us all on the occasion
of this holiday. Peace and its bounties are the greatest victory. I
wish we, together fully appreciate every year of peace and stability
for the sake of the next generation, which will be true to the vows
of its forefathers and will continue to build a new, superior Armenia".
