I have already received the winners and laureates of different Olympiads, and this will become a good tradition.”
Noting, that the students of graduating classes would be having a difficult year - graduation exams, strive for medals, and the admission exams, the President of Armenia said, “Let year 2010 become the first year of major successes for you. Excellent results are victories too, they are your victories. And to achieve these victories a person should first of all conquer himself or herself, his or her doubts and timidity. All victories start with “Yes, I can”. I wish you total confidence in your own abilities, because I trust your abilities. I have pretty serious grounds for it.”
The President of Armenia said that he greatly enjoyed their “Who, if not I” essays and was very much impressed. “After reading your essays, I came to the conclusion that you truly believe in yourselves and are confident about your future,” the President of Armenia stressed and added, “the focal point of your writings is patriotism, confidence in future and readiness to assume responsibility.
