EVERY ARMENIAN HAS RIGHT TO DEAL WITH PROBLEMS OF HIS HOME COUNTRY – ACTIVIST
Tert.am
21.10.11
Every Armenian has the right to deal with the problems of his or
her homeland, according to Zhirayr Sefilyan, a founding member
of Sardarapat initiative and a commander of a special commander
of Shoushi.
“Since Armenia’s independence, the nation has developed a kind of
dangerous approach, that is, Armenia’s problems should be tackled by
those residing in Armenia, and the problems abroad should be dealt
with by the Armenians residing in foreign countries. That approach
became a stereotype in the course of time and unfortunately continues
to remain so to date,” reads a post in the activist’s Facebook profile.
Sefilyan said it is now time to break such stereotypes.
“Every Armenian, no matter where he or she lives, has the right to
deal with the domestic developments of his or her home country as
long as they concern national problems and are directly related to
the existence of our country and people,” he noted.
