Serzh Sargsyan addresses message to Armenian people on Constitution Day

Dear Fellow Citizens,

I congratulate you on the occasion of the Constitution Day.
The referenda on the adoption and introduction of the amendments clearly showed the stance of the people of Armenia regarding the kind of country they want to live in. It was an uncontestable choice and respect toward and commitment to that choice is our sacred duty.
The Constitution reflects our determination to create a social, law-governed, and democratic state. Much has been done for bringing the Constitution to life; however, we should admit that much has not been fully realized yet. Today, through our steps and our resolve we must be able to give a new impetus to further democratization of the country. The Rights and Liberties of our citizens enshrined in our Constitution must enter every home and every office, every town and every village; they must become not only Constitutional norms but norms of life. We can do it because there is political will of the authorities and sincere desire of the vast majority of our people.

Dear Compatriots:

I once again extend my congratulations on this holiday and wish us all to have every opportunity to fully enjoy the wide spectrum of human rights and liberties which we have predetermined through our own choice.

Russia remains defiant over Trump threats

Russian glide bombs and ballistic missiles struck a Ukrainian prison and a medical facility overnight as Russia’s relentless strikes killed at least 22 people across the country, officials said on Tuesday 29 July, despite U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to punish Russia with sanctions and tariffs unless it stops. Trump said on Monday he is giving Russian President Vladimir Putin 10 to 12 days to stop the killing in Ukraine after three years of war, moving up a 50-day deadline he had given the Russian leader two weeks ago. “I’m disappointed in President Putin,” Trump said during a visit to Scotland.
