Nune Yesayan denies: She did not say about events of March 1 that they should not go there in order not be killed (video)

Today, Nune Yesayan had an opportunity to touch upon and once again deny that she had made the following statement during the events of March 1: “They shouldn’t go there in order not be killed.”

“I watched videos of March 1 and was very angry that I saw juveniles there. The next morning, a girl calls me and asks what I think. And I, being angry with the videos I had seen, told the girl, ‘what the juveniles were doing there?’

And they write that Nune Yesayan said, ‘they shouldn’t go there in order not be killed,'” explained the singer, adding that after consultation with her lawyer, she decided to keep silent and not refer to that announcement.

Nune Yesayan, referring to the velvet revolution, noted that she was for the change. “I’m for the independent person, for the free will. I’m not definitely with those revolutions, I’m afraid where there is a danger. I’m afraid for my children. I’m a passive citizen. I have friends in today’s government as I did in previous governments.”

To the question of A1+, why we did not see Nune Yesayan in the May 28 concert, Nune Yesayan said that former Minister of Culture Armen Amiryan had offered her to perform in one of the provinces. “I asked for some near provinces, as I could not take a long way, I was offered to perform in Ararat province, I sang. And the concert in Yerevan was not successful.”

Nune Yesayan touched upon her future plans and said that she is going to Beirut for two days for the concert and she has a big project ahead of Yerevan’s Holiday. She also presented her accomplishments of the entire creative life.

“I’m not going to give up singing. I am the only Armenian singer about whom the CNN had a reportage, I’m the only Armenian singer about whom the The New York Times wrote a report, the first Armenian singer who had a solo concert at the Kodak Theater many years ago, when Kirk Kerkorian was present at that concert. I have sung, I always sing. There can be not-lovers, not-appreciators, but do not offend my personality. After this, if anyone says anything about my family, they will be punished,” concluded Nune Yesayan.

By the way, today the singer met with journalists on the occasion of the gossips two days ago. The singer noted that she is very patient. “I am a lion, I have protected my right only.”

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
