Serzh Sargsyan: Karabakh people’s path toward freedom, toward determination to master its fate on its own is irrevocable
During his working visit to the United States, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan attended a reception held by the International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation at the United States Congress in honor of the Armenian president, according to the presidential press service. At the reception Serzh Sargsyan delivered a speech, in which he said in particular: “While being here, at the Capitol Hill, I would like to extend our words of gratitude to the people of the United States, and the U.S. Congress for the humanitarian assistance allocated to Nagorno Karabakh over the years.
That assistance has been significant for the people of Artsakh both from the humanitarian and, first and foremost, moral perspective. It comes to testify, time and again, that the Nagorno Karabakh Republic has not been forgotten in its efforts to build independent and democratic state while countering the persistent provocations of Azerbaijan, which has chosen the path to perfect the tyranny.
It is unambiguous that the Nagorno Karabakh people’s path toward freedom, toward determination to master its fate on its own, and toward building a democratic society is irrevocable. In this context, your continued support is indeed crucial”.
