I want to thank everyone for your thoughts, feelings, emotions, letters, wishes. Former Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) state minister and philanthropist Ruben Vardanyan, who is held captive in a prison in Azerbaijani capital Baku, noted this in his message in an an audio recording that was posted on the Facebook page of Mane Tandilyan, co-founder of the Country of Living party of Armenia.

"I feel them very well, I get warmth from them. I want to wish everyone a festive mood. I read somewhere that the most important journey is the journey within yourself. The more you rejoice and are able to convey that joy to others, the stronger you become. Maintain the festive mood, the feeling of miracle in yourself and your children, the expectation of something new. If you have time, watch children's films, cartoons, fairy tales, and do not be ashamed of being a child.

We have lost faith in God and faith in ourselves. It is very difficult to remain as you are in this world when you have no point of reference. I wish you all to have that point of reference. I want to say that everything is fine with me. I congratulate everyone on the holidays, thank you all,” Ruben Vardanyan added in his message.
