Hayrikyan: We Are Facing A Serious Threat

HAYRIKYAN: WE ARE FACING A SERIOUS THREAT

01:19 PM | TODAY | POLITICS

Armenia’s strategic ally, Russia, is selling up to $1 billion worth
of military equipment to Azerbaijan, the country that continually
threatens us; that is Russia is delivering Azerbaijan up to
$500 of weapons per capita in Armenia, Chairman of the National
Self-Determination Union Paruyr Hayrikyan told reporters on June 28.

Hayrikyan is more concerned over Armenia’s indifference towards
Russia’s arms deal with Azerbaijan. He advises reviewing the history
of Armenia to see how much Armenia has suffered because of Russia’s
imperialist policy.

“We have lost our historical memory. We are facing a serious threat,
but we remain silent, we do not protest, but much depends on us,”
said Mr Hayrikyan.

“Throughout my life, I have been warning against threats and showing
possible solutions. I do not suggest raising hysteria against Russia
but we must eventually sober up,” he stressed.

Speaking about the January assassination attempt against him, Hayrikyan
reiterated that ‘it was ordered by Imperialist Russia which was always
chasing him.’

“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
