    Welcoming address of Artsakh Republic President Bako Sahakyan to the
    participants in the meeting with NKR National Assembly deputies of all
    convocations in connection with the Artsakh Revival Day

    Dear attendees,

    I am glad to welcome all of you and congratulate all our compatriots
    on the Artsakh Revival Day. Each of you carries the very symbol of
    this day and has had a personal contribution to the realization of the
    ideas of the national liberation movement. 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
    correspondence 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.

    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.

    Dear friends,

    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
    оn the way of building a firm and prosperous future of Artsakh.

    Thank you!
