Russian Ambassador to Armenia Sergey Kopirkin issued a congratulatory message on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of Armenia’s independence. The message reads:
“I sincerely congratulate you on Independence Day. In the last 30 years, the Republic of Armenia has come a long way in becoming a dynamically developing sovereign state that keeps pace with the times while preserving its values and identity.
The past decades have proved the inseparability of the truly fraternal ties between our countries and peoples, which are united by a common historical past.
Today, the fruitful cooperation between Russia and Armenia in the whole framework of bilateral relations, and the successful cooperation in the field of our integration units, have confirmed that any challenge in the modern world can be overcome only through joint efforts.
The Russian-Armenian alliance, based on deep historical, spiritual, cultural traditions and the common interests of our citizens, is the key to the successful development of our countries in today's complex, rapidly changing world.
I once again congratulate the whole Armenian people on the Independence Day, wish them success, prosperity and peaceful sky overhead,” Kopirkin stated.
