On May 28, an event dedicated to the 105th anniversary of the restoration of Armenia’s statehood was held in the square adjacent to the statue of Aram Manukyan, the founder of the first republic of Armenia, under the title “We are the owners of our homeland.”
In his remarks, Chairman of the Supreme Body of the ARF of Armenia, Ishkhan Saghatelyan announced that they will fight to prevent the current regime from handing over the country to the enemy.
“The group in power in Armenia does not express the will of the Armenian people. The agenda of surrender is not the agenda of our people, therefore, the Armenian people will fight for their homeland, and any document that will be accepted by these authorities, by which Atsakh will be part of Azerbaijan, is worthless, has no legitimacy, and our people will not accept it,” said Saghatelyan
Schoolteacher Astghik Abrahamyan, member of the Supreme Body of ARF Armenia Taron Tonoyan, , and Chairman of the ARF Bureau Hagop Der Khachadourian also made speeches at the event.
“The Republic of Armenia created on May 28 was the miraculous resurrection of the Armenian people after the tragedy of the Genocide. The greatest victory of our recent history is May 28, which ensured the survival of our people and the opportunity to live and develop in its independent homeland that returned to the world map,” stated Hagop Der Khachadourian in his remarks.
“In those glorious days, the Armenian people were able to awaken in themselves the strength that, under the leadership of brave and inspiring home-grown leaders, turned Armenia into an iron fist,” he emphasized.
At the end of the rally, the participants of the action marched to the “Nemesis” monument, where renowned media personality Vatche Proudian gave a speech in appreciation of the spirit of the day and the “Nemesis” operation.
