RA NA MP Tigran Abrahamyan writes: “Today marks the 36th anniversary of the Artsakh movement, which for several decades has symbolized the collective will and righteous aspiration of the Armenian people to manage their own destiny and the determination to fight for national ideas.
On February 20, 1988, the extraordinary session of the Nagorno Karabakh Regional Council adopted a historic decision expressing the will of the people of Artsakh for free self-determination and starting the revival of Artsakh.
This path was difficult and thorny, but the idea was so strong that many people put their lives on the line to achieve their goal.
This created an opportunity for struggle and victory not only for Artsakh, but also for Armenia, because the Azerbaijani attacks that started later were not only in the direction of Artsakh, but also in the direction of Armenia, from Meghri, Yeraskh to Tavush.
In these difficult times for the Armenian people, this day should not be an occasion for despair or a nightmare, but it should be a record of the fact that in the most difficult days, Armenians are able to unite on the basis of an idea and conduct their decisive battle, regardless of whether the enemy is inside. or outside?
Today’s struggle is also a manifestation of respect for all those martyrs who died for the sake of tomorrow and for the defense of Artsakh and Armenia.”
