Various representatives of the government, including Nikol Pashinyan, continue to announce from the high podium of the National Assembly that “Artsakh is not Armenian”, “they will not continue the Karabakh movement”, etc.
Yesterday, NA Vice President Ruben Rubinyan announced from the NA podium that “Artsakh is not Armenian after September 19, 2023, when Artsakh Armenians left Artsakh.” He is referring to when the Armenians of Artsakh were forcibly displaced from their homeland under the threat of Azeri genocidal actions. In this context, however, Ruben Rubinyan did not talk about the fact that before 2023, on October 6, 2022, Nikol Pashinyan recognized Artsakh as part of Azerbaijan in Prague.
Metaxe Hakobyan, deputy of Artsakh NA “Justice” faction According to him, Ruben Rubinyan is lying precisely because he contradicts the statements of his political leader and members of his political team.
“Alen Simonyan and Nikol Pashinyan made other statements, probably Ruben Rubinyan has lost his memory, he does not remember his leader’s statement regarding Artsakh itself, when he said that there is no option, Artsakh Armenians should accept Azerbaijani citizenship.
From the beginning, they were forming their agenda at least on the basis of the statement made in Prague on October 6, 2022. Through the former president of Artsakh, Nikol Pashinyan conveyed to us that the Armenians of Artsakh have no choice but to accept Azerbaijani citizenship.” of 168.am Metakse Hakobyan said in a conversation with
According to him, taking into account all the listed circumstances, at this pre-election stage the government is trying to remove the responsibility from itself and put all the responsibility on the government of Artsakh and the Armenians of Artsakh in general, as well as on the PB.
“I repeat, Ruben Rubinyan is lying, because from the beginning they adopted that “course” that the Armenians of Artsakh should integrate with Azerbaijan and get Azerbaijani citizenship, the rest is to forget, not to talk about their crimes. They know very well that their leader committed the greatest crime of the century on October 6, 2022, denying the Armenianness of Artsakh. At least let them keep quiet until they face the responsibility before the law, the criminal group will have to answer before the law. Yes, they handed over Artsakh,” added Metaxe Hakobyan.
According to his observation, no government is eternal, including Nikol Pashinyan’s government, national governments have always been eternal, but treacherous governments have not.
“The longer the reign of the treacherous government, the greater the punishment, because they continue to commit crimes as long as they are able to avoid punishment, because they are in power today and have paralyzed the entire law enforcement system.
But at some point, they will cease to be in power and will definitely be responsible before the law for all crimes,” emphasized Metaxe Hakobyan.
