President Serzh Sargsyan’s congratulatory message to the RA academician, professor Sergei Hambardzumian

Dear Mr. Hambardzumian,

I cordially congratulate you on the occasion of your 95th birth anniversary. I am proud to be acquainted and interact with you as you are truly an epochal personality.

Your contribution to the areas of engineering, mechanics, and education is laudable and has been duly acknowledged and praised in the Soviet Union as well as abroad.
Your years-long pedagogical activities are also commendable. For decades, you have carried on with the mission of passing on to the younger generations the best traditions of the fundamental sciences honorably and meticulously. Your talent of a scientific research administrator was revealed at its best during your work in the National Academy of the Republic of Armenia and the Yerevan State University.

Your public and political activities are also estimable. At the most difficult times, you never gave up and with the dignity worthy of an Armenian intellectual defended Armenia’s national interests, especially related to Artsakh.

I congratulate you once again on this momentous anniversary, wish you good health, strength and tenacity to carry on with you patriotic activities.
