“Diesel fuel will be sent from Azerbaijan to Armenia 22 railway cars“, “4,500 tons of diesel fuel will be delivered from Azerbaijan to Armenia”, “Azerbaijan sends a new batch of petroleum products to Armenia”… these are the headlines of the weekly news, with which the Azerbaijani media informs about deliveries to Armenia through their territory. They inform with all the details and arithmetic accuracy.

These headers serve two purposes. The government of Azerbaijan shoves them in every possible report of all international organizations in order to strengthen its “peaceful image”. Another user of them is the government of Armenia, which is pushing the same headlines into the brains of the Armenian people to prove that such a blissful peace is no longer expressed in the form of fuel and grain.

In the case of gurus of international politics, as well as in the case of ordinary Armenian people, brainwashing is important, because in both cases, along with the principle of “money munnat”, it is also important to exclude the ability to think. Even, and more often than not, especially garbage-filled brains are deprived of the ability not only to think in the present, but also to remember the past, completely surrendering to the illusion of a fuel-grain future.

And not remembering the Armenian people is more important for the government of Azerbaijan, and therefore also for the government of Armenia, than all the goods transported and the amount of money received from it. If you remember, people can also experience associations and suddenly note that the weekly news of the Azerbaijani media about the batches of shipments through their territory is tragically similar to the ominous news received every day just six years ago about the quantities of bodies transported from Artsakh, which still belonged to us, to Armenia. An Armenian who feels this association can suddenly discover that the writers of those news in Azerbaijan are thinking and aiming for the expected almost open humiliation of Armenians. so many liters of diesel fuel in exchange for so many killed Armenians, so many tons of grain in exchange for the lives of hundreds of other young people who died in the strikes of Bayraktar the other days.

The reality of sounding monstrous should not deter from the inevitability of calling things by their names and recording that Azerbaijan, under the calf delight of the Armenian government, pays us every week for accepting the thousand-year-old loss of our grandfathers’ territory and the murder of thousands of our children so casually and animal reconciliation. Azerbaijan closes the account by paying the Armenian people for the lives of their own children, from which the Armenian government receives a tip like a waiter who rolls for a penny.

This shipping story is not about peace any more than it is about war. This is a story about open accounts, which, instead of us, Azerbaijan closes, as any bashibozuk does, in response to the indiscriminate attitude of the other party.

Armenian Artsakh and the unclosed account of the lives of five thousand Armenians must be closed by some generation of Armenians, and it has nothing to do with revenge or war, although, if necessary, they should not be excluded.

Either the unclosed Armenian account will ever be closed, or Armenianness and Armenia will be closed.

Our conciliatory perception of fuel grain degradation today is a burden left to tomorrow’s generation that cannot be transported by any rail or other vehicle.
