Dear compatriots,

Today, we are celebrating the holiday of Armenia’s independence. This great day is an occasion for giving again a meaning to the process of the establishment of our independent statehood.

Declaring its independence through referendum the people of Armenia founded our third republic and established its united will of building free and independent modern statehood. After a break of long years the re-establishment of Armenia’s independent statehood was the result of rise and unity of the Armenian people.

On the occasion of this great day I cordially congratulate all of us. I am sure that in future the proud spirit will be seen with new creative rise of the Armenian people, and our unity will pave the path for new and new victories of the Armenian people. I wish all of us new successes, welfare and happiness for the benefit of Armenia’s independent statehood.
