Security expert Tigran Abrahamyan, an MP from the opposition I Have the Honor bloc, condemned the Armenian leaders for their failure to visit Artsakh on the country’s Independence Day marked on September 2, saying it gives out “several bad signals”.
“The failure of the Armenian president, prime minister and parliament speaker to visit Artsakh speaks of several bad signals at once,” he wrote on Facebook on Friday, adding the issue does not concern only the symbolic days for Artsakh.
“Naturally, on 2 September many people noticed the absence of Armenian leaders at the symbolic events in Artsakh, but the same officials did not visit Artsakh at all after the war.
“Indifference to the Artsakh issue and the failure to put it high on the agenda speaks of a clear position of the current government.
“If the Armenian government follows the rules of the game dictated by Azerbaijan even in this case, then it is already clear what possible developments will follow,” the MP said.
Abrahamyan denounced the government for the “circle of defeats” which the country has found itself in, saying an agenda against the interests of Armenia and Artsakh is imposed on it.
