Yesterday, the first shots of the reprisal-judgement against the Armenian people and their liberation struggle were published, and many of the people I know came up with various comments containing despair and powerlessness, because we are really not able to provide immediate help to our hostages "However, it does not follow from this that we cannot help at all, and a lot depends on each of us here.
I will present a few suggestions below, with a clear awareness of the cause-and-effect relationships of what is happening: - demand that the regime in Armenia make the release of hostages an integral part of the currently negotiated "peace" agreement, and not sign such an agreement without it, even if its signing is delayed as a result, - more generally, as A prerequisite for stable peace is to establish the recognition of the right of self-determination of the people of Artsakh by Azerbaijan, and the refusal by Azerbaijan of any criminal prosecution against the participants of the military conflict when exercising that right.
- abandon the disastrous idea of dissolving the Minsk Group, because it will directly delegitimize the entire Artsakh struggle and open the door to even more brazen demands from Azerbaijan, including the mass extradition of the participants of the Artsakh struggle, - focus the resources of the influential centers of the Diaspora on the issue of the release of hostages, lobbying in their countries of residence Focusing on it. Emphasize the work with the Russian leadership, because The Armenians held hostage in Baku were under the actual protection of its peacekeeping forces - to turn the world public opinion on the judgment taking place in Baku, discrediting the hereditary dictatorial system ruling there in every possible way.
If this is not enough, we can think of more radical measures, there is a lot of experience in our history.
On my part, I take a commitment to follow up on my own proposals consistently, before that I express my support to the hostages of our countrymen who are relentlessly carrying the heavy burden of our liberation struggle, this time in the person of the noble commander Levon Mnatsakanyan, with whom I had the honor to cooperate in the days when he was still in charge. Artsakh Defense Army. May God protect you, be strong," he wrote.
