Tigran Sargsyan congratulated Armenians on Victory Day
RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan has congratulated the Armenian people on Victory Day and Shushi Liberation Day, RA Government Press Service reports. "Every year on this day, our souls are filled with a sense of unity and national dignity. To have a reliable and secure future, we are required to estimate the current situation in a sober manner and view our historical victories (from Avarayr to Shushi) from the angle of current threats and challenges. Shushi bows to those sons of Armenian people who sacrificed their lives for the sake of their country and people, for the sake of dignified life in free and independent Armenia.

We must always remember Armenian people's worthy merit in victory over fascism.

The recent years' victories are of special importance for all Armenians, as they constitute heroic pages written during Karabakh liberation war.

Congratulating you on Victory Day, I wish you health and peaceful and creative work to the benefit of our independent statehood and realization of our national goals."
