RA NA Speaker Alen Simonyan's congratulatory message on the occasion of the 32nd anniversary of the establishment of the Armed Forces.
"Dear compatriots,
Dear soldiers, non-commissioned officers, officers and generals, devoted sons of the Armenian Army,
I congratulate you on the Day of the Armed Forces of Armenia, the Day of the Armenian Army.
The Armenian army is the pillar of our past, present, and future, the trust and guarantor of the independent, sovereign republic of Armenia, the building and strengthening of which should be each of our missions.
During these 32 years, our army has endured the most challenging trials of different periods. We have recorded many victories and suffered heavy losses, but the spirit of the Armenian soldier was and is invincible.
I wish that your unbreakable spirit, courage, and devotion to the motherland always accompany us and that you continue your service under a peaceful sky for the good of the Republic of Armenia.
May God protect the Armenian army and the Armenian people.
Long live the Armenian soldier."
