Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, in his welcome speech at the opening ceremony of the 7th annual Pan-Armenian Games in the Stepanakert stadium, noted that it is a holiday because Armenians from all corners of the world have come together in the fortress of Armenian dignity: Artsakh.
“We are enjoying the happiness of being together because the same blood runs through our veins. The same blood that ran through the veins of Hayk Nahapet, King Artashes, Mesrop Mashtots, and Gregory of Narek now runs through us. And we have gathered in Artsakh to enjoy the strength of our unity and to understand that we are invincible when we are united,” the Prime Minister said.
