Armenia exists only thanks to the Armenian warrior

Battle of Aparan in 1918 May 23 – 29, Sardarapat battle – 1918 May 21-29 … etc.

In no war – battle, the Armenian soldier was not defeated.

Defeat always came from within, from weakening ambitions, from black envy, from insane mania not to share …

We did not consolidate our victories and were not the masters of the situation, but always looked for the guilty on the side.

And the Armenian warrior, against this background, fought madly, selflessly and proudly.

And if we exist today, it is only thanks to the Armenian warrior.
