Armenia celebrates The Independence Day
Today, Armenia celebrates 18th anniversary of independence declaration. Traditionally, RA political parties and communities representatives visited Yerablur Pantheon to lay wreaths at the memorial of Karabakh war victims.

On September 23, 1991, having the full support of the people, the Supreme Council officially declared the Republic of Armenia as an Independent State.
