(When will we see an American representative from the Armenian Ministry of Defense at a CSTO meeting?)

At some point, we will definitely find out what happened in Armenia in 2018: who was the puppet master of the well-known trials. Reasonable doubts will be replaced by documents and facts. However, regardless of what we learn in the future, today we can record that in 2018, and in 2021, there was political cheating and banal, vulgar deception.

Almost everything that the authorities talked about in 2018 and 2021 happened, only exactly the opposite: we were promised an atmosphere of love and tolerance, but what we received was hatred and division of society. They declared that Artsakh is Armenia, and today they shout louder than Erdogan and Aliyev that Artsakh is Azerbaijan. They promised that “our prisoners will wait a month or two” and return home after the elections, but after the elections Pashinyan handed over new prisoners represented by the military-political leadership of Artsakh. They promised to raise the level of sovereignty, which cannot be achieved without increasing the level of self-sufficiency, but today we see that “sovereignty” in the perception of these people is an open surrender of the country to external control.

In Armenia, of course, there are such marginalized people and certain politicians behind them who convince that “Pashinyan is Putin’s project,” however, we see that the overt external control of Armenia has reached the stage when US Deputy Secretary of State Uzra Zeya declares that that a representative of the US Army will work in the Armenian Ministry of Defense. Yes, Suren Papikyan has a new boss, to whom, in addition to Nikol Pashinyan, he will henceforth bring reports, but the problems of intraspecific relations in the “GD” should worry us less than the problems that the Armenian statehood will face…
