“Dear compatriots,
I congratulate you on the occasion of the May glorious holidays: Victory and Peace Day and Liberation of Shushi.
It’s 19 years that with the liberation of Shushi May 9th as victory day gained for us more weighty significance becoming a symbolic day of our unity, solidarity, and tolerance towards each other and as a result of new victories.
The Great Patriotic War and Artsakh heroic battle serve as a factual evidence of the Armenian soldier being devoted to his Motherland. Time showed that during about half a century between those wars and today the Armenian soldier’s will and spirit are unbending. He was obliged to prove it with battle and weapon, but being permanently guided by the aspiration of peace, principle of not hitting those who fell, without swaggering militancy.
The destiny of Artsakh and the protection of Armenia’s borders consolidated and united us, as the priority is the interest of the Motherland. Today there is need for that. Finally, our unity is necessary for the soldier standing at the border irrespective of his age and birthplace, and it’s necessary as invulnerable shield keeping his rear. Glorifying our deceased heroes I once again congratulate yesterday’s and today’s aged and young soldiers of the Great Patriotic and Artsakh Liberation War on the occasion of the May holidays. I wish you peace, welfare, optimism and trust towards future.”
