Bako Sahakyan thanked participants of Annual PhonathonNovember 20, 2010 - 13:54 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Artsakh Republic President Bako Sahakyan addressed the participants of the Annual Phonathon organized by Hayastan All-Armenian Fund. “I am glad to welcome all of you and express my deep gratitude for your efficient participation in the life of Artsakh. Due to your immediate and active support numerous programs of strategic importance have been realized in almost all sectors of Artsakh’s economy. These programs greatly contribute to the development and prosperity of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic,” he said. “The Armenian community of Europe is especially active during the annual fund-raising campaign organized by the Hayastan All-Armenian fund. The phonathons carried out here are distinguished by a very high level of organization. I was a witness of these activities and felt moments of pride seeing the devotion of the younger generation and their eagerness to be useful to the Motherland as far as possible. The formation of such an atmosphere is also a result of the activities carried out by the fund’s branch in France. The Artsakh people are fully aware of that and appreciate it very much. I am confident that with this spirit we shall continue our patriotic undertaking, further strengthen the Armenia-Artsakh-Diaspora trinity and solve all the issues set before us with dignity.”
