In regards to the 4th of July, the Republic of Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan addressed the American Embassy in Yerevan today stating:
“There is no nation or people that are not striving for independence and freedom,” stressing that American Independence Day marked on July 4 “had and even today has significance not only for the people of the United States, but for all nations, including the people of Nagorno-Karabakh.”
“I take this opportunity to thank your [President Obama's] administration and you personally for persistent and constructive efforts for the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem that are aimed at maintaining peace, stability and security in the region,” President Sargsyan, in particular, said in his message.
“Armenia attaches special importance to the ongoing close cooperation with the United States and warm partnership relations, progressive development of our bilateral relations, further strengthening and deepening of friendship between our peoples and our countries.”
Self-determination, a human right in which the Armenian people of Nagorno-Karabakh have fought and continue to fight day after day until their independence is internationally recognized.
