“I do not want to open many brackets of how and why the cease-fire agreement was signed, and what was the situation in 1994. I do not want to get into it. There are national security matter, which referring is detrimental to the country,” so responded ANC faction leader Levon Zurabyan, in the conversation with Aravot.am, referring to the statement made by Lieutenant-General Norat Ter-Grigoryants that Levon Ter-Petrosyan’s signed ceasefire agreement in Bishkek is a treachery. Norat Ter-Grigoryants has told this recently during the Russian RT program, telling why he had left Armenia offended. The General had mentioned that the Artsakh war ended with a disgraceful ceasefire agreement signed in Bishkek, which was the biggest treachery. And because of this very agreement, he had serious disagreement with military-political leaders of Armenia.

He said that later, Levon Ter-Petrosyan personally had left for Moscow and persuaded General to return to Armenia, but the General has refused. Norat Ter-Grigoryants, referring to the Bishkek cease-fire agreement signed on May 5, said that it was not worthy of the winning country to sign such a humiliating ceasefire, which was not driven from the interests of Armenian people and the Armenian state. According to him, this shameful agreement was a tomfoolery and stupidity, which was signed by people who do not have any clue about political or military affairs, and they do not know what is meant by a strategy. Levon Zurabyan explained that the cease-fire agreement signed on May 5 was followed by the agreement of May 12, which was signed by defense ministers of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, Serzh Sargsyan and Samvel Babayan, respectively.

Levon Zurabyan said, “It was a consensus between the government and army leaders. And the cease-fire agreement was actually signed and entered into force only when the Defense Ministers of Armenia and NKR put their signatures underneath it. If they were not in favor of it, it would not have happened.” According to Levon Zurabyan, many people who have been away from this event, can be impressed by Norat Ter-Grigoryants statement. While, the reality is totally different, and very issue is very delicate. Levon Zurabyan qualified Norat Ter-Grigoryants’ statements as absurd.
