“Nikol Pashinyan is not interested in Armenia, the Armenian people, the law in general

Nikol Pashinyan said in a press conference with journalists after the Cabinet meeting today that when the clergy use the expression “Republic of Artsakh” during church liturgies, they are inciting war with Azerbaijan.

“Regarding the question of why I say that the Church, Kprich Nersisyan and his group, took over the leadership of the war party, it has a very simple explanation. I go to liturgy and I see that during the liturgy they refer to the Republic of Artsakh and so on, and there is no such thing in the text of the liturgy, they deviate from the text of the liturgy. What does that mean, it means conflict, that is, we refer to Artsakh Republic, etc., it first means conflict, and then, if we adopt that theory, on the way to that theory, we have to go to conflict, so how do we solve it?

Every such sentence means a call to war: today, tomorrow, the next day, the day after that, I don’t know, but it means a call to war. When they say: Republic of Artsakh from every pulpit, they have stepped on the road to war.

Every time we say this, Azerbaijan in turn develops its speech. They say: return, what kind of return, where to return, is there a topic of return of refugees, but Azerbaijan is putting forward the same thing in the same way. Those topics will develop, develop, clash with each other and become a war.” announced Pashinyan.

Former HRD of Artsakh Republic, former Minister of State Artak Beglaryan for example, it is interesting why Nikol Pashinyan never responds to the statements of the Azerbaijani authorities and state bodies.

“When, for example, Azerbaijan announces the return of “West Azerbaijan”, “Zangezur”, “West Azeris”, state bodies and media use Armenian place names as Azerbaijani names, doesn’t Nikol Pashinyan think that they are inciting war with this? Or is he just confident in his abilities that he will not start a war, but he is not sure that Aliyev will start or not?

In fact, their policy is a policy of war, because by constantly giving in, constantly being humiliated, humiliating us all, giving in to our intransigent borders, there will be physical and non-physical borders, thereby showing Azerbaijan that it is possible to have war results even without war. It is possible to get everything they want by waging cognitive or hybrid warfare.

Nikol Pashinyan is either conducting the Turkish-Azerbaijani policy deliberately, which literally means treason, or he lacks the minimum political maturity to do all this for years.” 168.am–Artak Beglaryan said in a conversation with

According to our interlocutor, there is also a third version, according to which Nikol Pashinyan is not interested in Armenia, the Armenian people, rights, etc., he is only interested in himself and his government. And in order to preserve that power, he feels that he can go in that direction in order to keep the Armenian society always divided and to be able to neutralize the possible threats to his power by intimidating the people with external threats and internal “enemies”.

Artak Beglaryan has been of the belief for a long time that Nikol Pashinyan understands many things very well and he does everything by understanding them. for example, it should not put the issues of those forcibly displaced from Artsakh and Azerbaijanis who left Armenia on the same level.

“At least that’s how he interprets it, that many things need to be done to maintain his power.

By the way, Aliyev has approximately the same motivation, that is, Aliyev is preaching Armenian hatred there, committing crimes against the Armenian people in order to perpetuate his power, Nikol Pashinyan is conducting such concessionary, humiliating and divisive policies here to maintain his power.

Of course, seasoning all that with propaganda manipulations, misleading the people, etc. But all this cannot lead to peace, it happens within the framework of approaches based on fair, dignified and mutual respect.

When one side constantly humiliates the other side, the rights of the weak side are constantly violated, the weak side cannot have peace. With this, he postpones a possible war, but does not neutralize the threat. And the threat is the Azeri ideology, the Armenian hatred, which cannot be eliminated. The threat is Aliyev, it is our weakness, our division,” stressed Artak Beglaryan.

Our interlocutor emphasizes that Nikol Pashinyan is not the one who decided the return of Artsakh Armenians.

“Each citizen of Artsakh, in this case a refugee, decides for himself whether he wants to return or not. Unfortunately, the state position depends on Nikol Pashinyan, and since the people of Artsakh are stateless and we do not have a state, the only state that undertook our protection was the Republic of Armenia, it actually turns out that the political agenda of our return depends on the political will or unwillingness of Nikol Pashinyan. However, this does not mean that it will always be like this.

Nikolpashinyans will come and go, but our rights will be permanent. The main thing is that we do not give up on this issue and continue our struggle for return,” emphasized Artak Beglaryan.
