Our Vision
The Republic of Armenia will be secure and prosperous, made possible by democracy, the rule of law, advanced market reforms and a people in full and vigilant partnership with their government at all levels. Evidence of Armenia's acknowledged role as a model for the former Soviet Union will be its expanding economy driven by direct foreign investment, repatriation of its former citizens and a Diaspora active in all facets of Armenia's resurgence.
Internationally, Armenia will be at peace with its neighbors, will have acheived European Union membership and will be a full integrated and active participant in all bodies and initiatives promoting and sustaining regional security, stability and mutually beneficial economic integration.
Via the direct participation of its duly elected leaders, the Nagarno Karabakh Republic's final status - either as an independent state or as an integral and contiguous part of the Republic of Armenia - will be resolved, internationally recognized and guaranteed.
The Diaspora will be a vital partner for Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh throughout the world and linked together in effective collaboration to advance pan-Armenia interests globally. A Diaspora wide consensus will have been realized for the Republic of Armenia to deal with historic and contemporary questions that impact all Armenians.
In view of its ongoing growth in size, competence and reach, the Armenian Assembly of America will be the leading champion in deepening the U.S./Armenia and U.S./Karabakh relationships and will be in the forefront of a comprehensive, non-partisan, Diaspora wide effort to irrevocably secure Armenia's and Karabakh's freedom, democracy and security
