Dear Artsakhians,
I cordially congratulate you on the occasion of Independence Day.
It's been more than two decades that you have been healing the wounds
inflicted by the war unleashed by the short-sighted authorities of
Azerbaijan; you are restoring to life your villages and towns devastated by
the deadly bombs and missiles, your homes and schools; you are building and
beautifying the land of your ancestors. Today, we state with confidence
that the Republic of Nagorno Karabakh is an accomplished state - democratic
and developing. It is obvious for the entire world, even for those who hate
to admit it.
In 1991, when the people of Artsakh were making their historic decision, we
told Azerbaijan that the Armenians must not be underestimated. Our words
fell on deaf ears. We said that we didn't want war but we were ready and
would fight. And again our words fell on deaf ears. We said that we were
not afraid of maniacs, sadists and murderers, that we had already seen
that. Once again our words fell on deaf ears. And they unleashed war which
had one clear-cut goal -to wipe the Armenians out from the territory of
Artsakh, or at least to expel them. The program of ethnic cleansing failed,
as will fail every new one.
Today, we state the same: the Armenians must not be underestimated; we
don't want a war, but if we have to, we will fight and win; we are not
afraid of murderers even of those enjoy the highest patronage. And again
our words fall on deaf ears. Well, they have been warned.
Recently, we have witnessed a morbid episode. The one who killed with an
axe a sleeping Armenian officer was set free. We expect the response of the
international structures as well as of the Minsk Group Co-Chairs on this.
However regardless of the response, on behalf of the people of Artsakh and
the entire Armenian nation, I would like to pose a question - after what
has happened, is there a living soul on this planet who will advise the
people of Artsakh to become part of Azerbaijan, a country where illicit
orders set free and publicly glorify every bastard which kills people only
because they are Armenians?
A greater disgrace for the European justice is hardly to be imagined,
particularly for Armenia and Artsakh, because it was looked upon for
guidelines, but now we have seen another face of it.
Dear compatriots, unfortunately the history of Artsakh has never been short
of the invaders and brigands. We know that, we also know how to send them
right where they belong - to the cesspit of history. We have been doing it
regularly, and if needed, will do it again.
Almost daily, and particularly in recent days, we are witnessing new proofs
on how justified the choice made by the people of Artsakh 21 years ago was.
We continue to receive new striking evidence what was in store for the
people of Artsakh. Today is a great day, and nothing can spoil our glorious
holiday. I wish your families peace and prosperity.
Long live free Artsakh - embodiment of Armenian dignity!
