Imagine a situation when someone in your neighborhood has told you very directly to your face for years that he will come to solve your and your brother’s issues, he said it is not enough, and he has also regularly shown that he is preparing for it. He buys weapons, trains, comes and scouts the location of your house and your yard.

In short, you have put your hope on the neighboring “good guys” that if they come, they will stand behind you, there will be no one to say anything to you and your brother. One day they come after you, no “good guy” comes from the side yard, instead he silently watches how they solve your problems. During this fight, your brother is seriously injured or we can say killed, and you are also plastered on the floor. Now after that the murderer says: look, I’ll come after you too, if I don’t see you suddenly, get up, you’ll be plastered on the floor, you’ll stay like that, one thing: I’ll solve your questions. During that time, distant neighbors and friends come and say: come, let’s help you get up from the floor, exercise a little, get stronger, we can stand on your back for a while, you will come to your senses. Instead, you say no, you start worshiping your brother’s killer, justifying him, telling all the policemen that he did the right thing, I never had a brother like him, I was wrong to think about a healthy life. You become his henchman, you don’t want to get up in any way, you start to make it normal and pleasant to be lying on the floor. Then, when people come with the goal of training, getting stronger, and self-defense, you say, “Why, you have to stay down.”

Aliyev’s man, the supreme “mutilovshik”, is the guarantor of keeping Armenia on the ground, so whoever comes, good or not so good, but puts forward any idea to get up from the ground, is aggressive, gets to the point.

The man who came in 2018 with unprecedented popular support, in the last eight years brought three wars, actual genocide, brought upon us Aliyev’s concept of aggression, brought humiliation and humiliation, agreed to become Aliyev’s man, alone, to stay in power and ensure that Armenia remains at the bottom. It won’t work. Armenia will stand up, even if alone, precisely because the enemy has directly said to its front that it will come from behind, and this time it is necessary to prevent that fateful day by being strong, not relying on the neighboring “good guys” or the enemy’s non-existent goodwill…
