“SERGE SARGSYAN IS A SMALL PERSON”

Politics

“When we sacrificed our lives in the war, we could have never thought that one day it would become subject for sale. Today some people want to sell high ideas in order to solve personal problems. Everything is distorted, even the concept of being Armenian”, this was the statement made by NGO “Brotherhood of Liberation War” today.

On behalf of the 57 commanders President of the NKR Yerkrapah Union Arkadi Karapetyan called on everyone to join the movement “Civic Disobedience”. Why have the commanders decided to speak about it today? Mr. Karapetyan said, “Many of us understand Turkish and follow the Azeri Mass Media. They used to announce that one day they might take back the lost territories. Now they claim they will do it soon”. According to Arkadi Karapetyan, the RA authorities do not hide their readiness to give them territories.

“If Serge Sargsyan announces that Aghdam has never been an Armenian land, what does it mean?” Mr. Karapetyan said angrily. The journalists reminded him about another announcement of Serge Sargsyan that when we took the disputable lands in 1994 we knew that we would exchange them later. “Serge Sargsyan is too small a person to say such a thing. When did he say that? Could he dare to say the same in 1992 or 1994? No soldier would fight if he knew that later someone would decide to give the lands they liberate to the Azeris”.

Arkadi Karapetyan is especially worried about the fact that Robert Kocharyan and Serge Sargsyan spoilt the reputation of the Karabakhians. “I was against his coming to Armenia. Robert Kocharyan was not elected in Karabakh either. On June 2, 1992, the whole government of Armenia came to Karabakh in order to make people elect him President of the country, but we didn’t. So he was appointed President of the Defense Committee, and his career began”.

Arkadi Karapetyan assured that the people of Karabakh do not put trust in either the NKR or the RA authorities when it comes to the settlement of the Karabakh conflict.

Arkadi Karapetyan also said he has his variant of mutual compromise. “We have already compromised – we did not take Baku”. He especially underlined that they do not make militant announcements. “Normal people do not want war. I have lost children, friends and relatives. At this rate our nation will die without any war”.

The Council of Commanders of the “Brotherhood of Liberation War” promised to represent 132 variants of the change of authorities. The best variant adoring to them is the following, “Those people who have seen war have only one variant: whatever he is not given he takes by force. Those who want to give the liberated lands to the Azeris are the same enemies to us who will have the same fate”.
