But do you understand what happened in the last 5 years? So, a nation that did not forgive the former president for 100 victims and the loss of 800 hectares in 2016 (even later it turned out to be less), suddenly found himself very "forgiving" towards the loss of 5,000 victims and about 12,000 square km of territory. He forgave the loss of Artsakh, the existence of prisoners in Azerbaijan, the daily humiliations by the Aliyev government... he forgives the political persecution of innocent people, the usurpation of communal power, the distortion of election results, he reconciles with the increase in fees and taxes, fares, he is ready to tacitly breathe poisonous air, pay for the luxurious life of the rulers... he tolerates this betrayal of his faith and church... But not the reason for everything is the agreement with everything that is happening in our country, the propaganda tricks, tricks of other authorities, specifically Nikol Pashinyan, the unforgivable "talent" of spouting nonsense and nonsense.
I really say that the opposition has a lot to learn from Pashinyan. Look in retrospect, how in 5 years the church was able to transform us from a society demanding its resignation to a society of defenders with desperate efforts. After all, in 2021, all institutions and the whole society demanded his removal, now he himself is demanding the removal of the Catholicos. And not only does it demand, but it is an unstoppable attack like a "lark", not allowing people to one day calm down and reflect on the disastrous nature of his rule, talk about his removal, prepare for the 2026 elections, hoping and taking steps that at least there will be a change of power at that time... This is called in everyday language - abarotka frral. It is when the guilty begins to attack, the innocent is acquitted, when it is not the criminal who is punished, but the victim, and it is not the light that begins to increase, but the darkness that thickens... And the opposition is not even able to use its obvious advantages, its trump cards, to take a step forward, to take the initiative. It is obvious that if the opposition's desire to come to power was comparable to Pashinyan's desire to retain power, even by 10 percent, the removal of this failed, backward-looking government in all fields would definitely succeed. dictatorial "skin", how much the number of dissatisfied people in our country has reached.
