YEREVAN. – Independence itself is the greatest achievement of the 20 years of Armenia’s independence, United Labor Party Chairman Gurgen Arsenyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

“It is an achievement that we have acquired the right to appear with the highest degree of social union, that is, to have our own state. Also, we received the chance to make our own and non-imposed mistakes, and to achieve our own success,” Arsenyan noted.   

According to the politician, Armenia did not have any ethical losses during its 20-year independence. But “we have losses in human resource. Numerous distinguished people, pioneers of independence, and builders of independence are no longer with us,” Gurgen Arsenyan stated.
