    ARMENIA CELEBRATES INDEPENDENCE DAY

    Russia

    The Republic of Armenia is marking Independence Day. The republic
    held an independence referendum precisely 16 years ago.

    "We opened a new page in the history of the Armenian people on
    September 21, 1991," says a congratulatory message by Prime Minister
    Serzh Sargsyan. "The victory we have won, the crisis we have resolved,
    a high economic growth we have achieved, the public and political
    environment we have developed, and a high potential of our growth
    are written on this page."

    Armenia develops extensive political, economic, military and
    humanitarian cooperation in Russia and actively participates in the
    CIS and the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO).

    "We had and still have certain problems - homeless families, poverty,
    corruption and violated rights," the premier said. "Such things upset
    us and prompt our response, but we have always loved this country."
