‘This is a repeating pattern’, Karen Bekaryan on protest near Artsakh representative office in Armenia

This is not a coincidence; this is a consistently repeating pattern that has been planned, Head of the Hayatsk think tank Karen Bekaryan told Alpha News, referring to yesterday’s protest by a group of Artsakh residents near the Artsakh representative office in Armenia.

“Is it possible to understand what harms the interests of Armenia when you consult with the Armenian authorities? There are daily problems related to the Armenian authorities, including salaries and social issues. People find themselves trapped, processes are delayed, time is lost, and then we are in deep water, and what has happened happens again. This is not a coincidence; this is a consistently repeating pattern that has been planned all this time,” he said.

According to Bekaryan, the authorities set traps that people fall into and then blame them.

“They set traps for people so that they lose their sense of clarity. It leads to a completely opposite inertia. And then, with great ease, they will shift all responsibility onto these people and make them look guilty,” Bekaryan said.
