    Dear compatriots,

    On the eve of the New Year any of us tries to assess the passing year.
    We wish to be lucky and avoid misfortunes. We connect hopes with the
    coming year. Perhaps, that is the reason why the New Year and Christmas
    are the kindest holidays. Like many of you I celebrate these holidays
    with my family and friends.

    However, being the President of the republic, I try to assess how the
    passing year was for Armenia and our people. I'm doing that the tenth
    time.

    I can assert with confidence that the year 2007 was one of the most
    successful. The activity of the authorities was mainly directed toward
    reinforcement of security, economy, the social sphere an democracy.

    The high pace of economic development was maintained, which allowed to
    provide greater means to social issues, the most important of which is
    poverty reduction.

    The effectiveness of our Armed Forces and the capacity to defend the
    peaceful life of the citizens increased. Armenia's international
    involvement and rating steadily improved.

    The parliamentary elections and their results proved the maturity of
    our society and the positive perception of the reforms underway in the
    country.

    This is the best guarantee that the coming year 2008 will also be
    successful. We must soberly estimate that there are still many things
    to be done. Everyday work is needed to overcome the existing
    challenges. This first of all refers to the improvement of the quality
    of life. Our citizens deserve a better life. Our country and the
    Armenian citizenship must be a pride for everyone.

    We must add the efforts for the development of the Nagorno Karabakh
    Republic by helping our brothers to build an effective state, a
    statehood that is able to defend itself.

    The strengthening of the army will continue to be a priority. Ensuring
    the security of the country is once of the essential components of
    progress. We have to remember all those who sacrificed their lives for
    the peaceful development of the country.

    We must deepen the involvement of the Diaspora in the development of
    the country. The Diaspora is the most effective way to maintain the
    national identity.

    Dear compatriots,
    Presidential elections are expected at the beginning of the next year.
    The proper conduct of these will become a guarantee of stability for
    the coming five years. Without stability it is impossible to speak
    about success.

    I believe in the prosperous future of Armenia and the potential of our
    people. I wish health, wealth and happiness to your families. Let the
    New ear become the year of success.
