"1988 opened a new page in our history. The main achievement of the

Artsakh movement was the rebirth of the Armenian statehood. It is

an absolute value which has no alternative. And we again announce to

the world - Artsakh will never give up its freedom and independence

which cost human lives. The security of NKR will never be an object

of trade. We are responsible for both our achievements and losses,

and we see the future of Artsakh bright, strong and Armenian," stated

President Bako Sahakyan during the rally at the Square of Rebirth

in Stepanakert.

 

"Our sacred duty is to cherish the spirit of 1988, stay committed

to the ideas declared by our people 20 years ago, and continue to

build a state of which we dream. A country where everyone will live a

dignified and secure life, proud of their strength and protection. This

is the precept of 1988 which we must bring into being," said the head

of state.

 

"The child of 1988 is our army which is the main guarantee of our

victories. The army is always ready to counteract to the encroachments

of the foe. Our army is strong because it belongs to people, and such

army is undefeatable," said President Bako Sahakyan. "The generation

of 1988 will carry on the cause of their predecessors. This generation

is different: for them freedom and independence are indivisible from

the reality. This is the best response to the dictatorial aspirations

of Azerbaijan," the president added.
