The "Fact" daily writes:
The "fact" talked to the head of the Pan-Armenian Forum Movement, former Minister of Defense, Major General Arshak Karapetyan.
The topic of conversation is the "peace agreement", a certain mitigation of the tense relations between Russia and the United States, and what is expected of dictators.
- Mr. Karapetyan, Nikol Pashinyan is almost daily that it is ready to sign the "Peace Agreement".
Azerbaijan is not in a hurry to set preconditions, and the situation on the border is tense day by day.
- I have always said that he does not negotiate with us, he is not going to sign any documents. Even if we change the Constitution, which is one of the requirements, I doubt that in that case the Azerbaijani side will sign a document of peace.
Azerbaijan knows very well, the agreement, which is signed with the use of force between states, is null and void. This proves Article 52 of the 5th Part of the Venice Convention. Part 5 is called "Invalidity, breakup and suspension of contracts." Article 52 stipulates that the agreement is null and whether its signing has been a result of the threat of force. Suppose Nikol Pashinyan signed the document, he is ready for that.
We need to understand that Azerbaijan has 5-year-old, 2020-2025. Program: This is clear information. These five years of actions are divided into several stages.
The first began and ended with a 44-day war in 2020, as a result of which they could not fulfill the first stage, Artsakh lost some areas, but its main area remained in Armenia's domain.
Two years have passed since an interim stage, Azerbaijan finally occupied Artsakh. The second important stage, which has in their plans, is joining Azerbaijan and Nakhichevan. Are on that road.
These documents, these statements have one goal by our country's leadership to condemn Azerbaijan, say that Armenia agrees, everyone welcomes this process. It believes that Azerbaijan will not attack.
Do you remember that they had an ideology that if we stay calm, no one would attack us? Today we cannot "sneeze" the side of Azerbaijan through the country headed by Nikol Pashinyan. At those times, they were "thanks to".
He has destroyed the Armenian state in seven years. The state has left on paper. As a state, we do not solve any questions. We can't defend our people, see what condition economy is in an unbearable situation, there is no science.
I speak about systems, yes, we can have separate scientists, doctors who continue to work. The army ... I don't want to say much about this.
Azerbaijan will not sign a document with us, let them not expect much expectations from the international community. The same international community was silent a hundred years ago, when genocide took place. Then they began to condemn, to recognize that fact, but at that time no one knocked on his finger.
According to our information, some European states supported it. Hundreds of years passed, Artsakh was captured, and some people said, "It's not good." Azerbaijan has been damaged. No. Azerbaijan's budget has increased in the same years. Azerbaijan has begun to spread an atmosphere of fear among the Armenian people.
We regularly said that he had been given an order not to carry out our servicemen, it was 2021. On May 9, in the direction of Vardenis, which was said during the meeting, such a thing happened in Goris and elsewhere. The instruction of not shoot is characteristic of himself. Now Nikol Pashinyan refuses to judge the officers.
And now the order to do not call is to give public. See where we have reached. I think we can't have international respect until we do our positions.
- According to the monitoring, Armenia today is a state only on paper. It turns out that Pashinyan is very weak in the outside world, but in Armenia he has created dictatorship.
Gaddafi ruled his country for decades and Libyan's economy raised such a level that the people began to breathe. He developed the oil system, made important things for his country.
Everything has ended badly for himself, that's the future of the dictator. In the case of Saddam Hussein, we have the same picture, the development of the oil and gas system, etc., the people lived a normal life. The same ended as Gaddafi.
Iraq and Iran passed through the eight-year war, finally, they signed a peace agreement that still operates. Let's remember Turkey before Erdogan and today. I don't want to list Turkey's international success in Erdogan's government.
The Turkish status rose several points, they are taking into account today. The same is Aliyev. They have no history and language, but they prove the whole world that they are an ancient people. Soviet Azerbaijan did not produce almost arms.
Today, their military industry complex is one of the best in the region. I'm not talking about the development of oil and gas systems, the level of education and social security of the people of Azerbaijan.
It is possible that Erdogan and Ali have a bad end, but this is true. Let's talk about our dictator. How can a bicycle drive be a dictator? The dictator must have literacy.
Our dictator has no higher education. In case of no higher education in our neighboring countries, it is forbidden to be the head of state. The Armenian nation took the first place in the Soviet Union, with military science, about 900,000 of the 1,600,000 labor staff worked in the scientific sphere.
Today, our country's leader is illiterate. He does not belong to any social layer of the Republic of Armenia. Show which layer the authorities belong to.
- MPashinyan stated a few days ago that our country is Armenia, but our state has been under the rule of the Ottoman Empire. Before that, he invited journalists from Turkey to Armenia at the expense of our taxpayers, and one of them presented the blue mosque in Yerevan as Turkish.
- When Armenia existed, the so-called Ottoman Empire did not exist. We can say with the same success that the Republic of Armenia is the Soviet Union, which has lived in the flowering years.
I don't understand the approach, nor psychology. Is the upper degree of illiteracy. If we study history, we have been under the power of the Persians. What do Yerevan have to do with the Ottoman Empire?
It is a man who is a history of the Internet. He does not know who the King of the Pope is constantly remembered him. We had kings of Arshak, Menua, Argishti, named children in honorary years. Why doesn't anyone call his child named after the King of the Pope, and why does Nikol Pashinyan constantly bring the example of this king?
I doubt that anyone in the future nominated his child nikol. I give an assessment, I have no tendency to insult anyone. We are a people who have national goals, but he goes in the opposite direction. - Mr. Karapetyan.
"Let's move" to the International Arena. After the Trump came to power, the world began to change. It seems that we are dealing with the restoration of US-Russia relations. What predictions do you have in this part? -
I tried to prompt once to the leadership of our country that the situation in the world is changing. I was prompted yet when they went to sign some paper with Biden's administration.
Why don't they talk about that paper now? In my opinion, the talks between Putin and Trump will go not only on Ukraine.
The table will be the issues where the boundaries of American interests will pass to Russia, and where they will cross the boundaries of interest in Russia's domain.
Negotiations will be about this. I am confident, except for the Baltic states, the territories of the former Soviet countries will remain in the range of Russian interest. The American side will agree to it because there are no grounds to agree. This also applies to Armenia.
If Armenia wants to be safe, I suggest, especially when there are prompts on Iran, I forget to become a member. It's just impossible. Deceive our people. All this must be forgotten and agreed with Iran, restoring their relations with Russia.
Russia-Armenia-Iran, this is our military and security future. If we can create such a military alliance, be sure no one will attack us in the next 50 years. Aliyev understands very well that today's government of Armenia has no future.
The Turks know very well if Arshak Karapetyan came to power, the problem in two days will be complicated for themselves several times. They know that Nikol Pashinyan will not be one day, the case will not reach 2026. The election, if it reaches, is not the same due to the so-called "old opposition" activities of our passivity.
Today, the Armenian people are punishable by the two government, Azerbaijan and today's businessman in Armenia. Two authorities have criminal cases on our 2.7 million people, we will get out of that situation.
I see clearly the future of today's government of the Republic of Armenia, with one wording, woe. The same is expected to be the leadership of Azerbaijan, they will remain in power a little longer, but they will have a very bad end. The same goes for Erdogan.
