CCAF: Armenia’s sovereignty is starting point for better futureSeptember 21, 2011 - 16:21 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Coordination Council of Armenian Organizations of France (CCAF) sent best wishes for the 20th anniversary of the independence of Armenia. “For the Armenians all around the world these 20 years of independence of Armenia are a source of joy and pride. Within the history of our nation, this State is not only as a kind of culmination of an ideal of sovereignty, never attained in the past, but also as a starting point for a better future. Sovereignty depends of a number of external factors which are beyond its control, as for example its neighbourhood. We do not know how lucky we are, having preserved these lands from the Genocide and having them freed from totalitarianism. It is up to us to make it a breeding ground for our national genius that allowed us to survive so many sufferings and made it the best place in the world for the Armenians,” CCAF said in its congratulatory message.
