The Armenian authorities have launched a process to push the Artsakh issue into the background, according to MP Tigran Abrahamyan from the opposition With Honor faction.

“The authorities have embarked on an operation to push the issue of Artsakh into the background, focusing public attention on the security and infrastructure issues of Syunik, Vayots Dzor and Gegharkunik Provinces, as a result of which the Artsakh issue has been (or is being) left out of public debates,” he wrote on Facebook on Wednesday.

“This is a clear policy aimed at closing the Artsakh issue, avoiding any responsibility related to Artsakh and protecting themselves from the negative impact of the developments surrounding Artsakh in the future,” Abrahamyan said.

“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
