The congratulation message by the President of Armenia addressed to Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was criticized by many. The Head of “Karin” folk ensemble, Gagik Ginosyan, is convinced that the move at the first glance seems normal, protocoled, on the other hand, according to his wording, “Serzh Sargsyan could have been abstained, because we do not have political diplomatic ties, And I was against and still am to the process initiated by them and the bilateral agreement.”
At the request of Aravot.am, referring to the tragic events in northern Iraq, Ginosyan said, “I cannot say whether it is a genocide or not, but I needed to express our attitude to what happened. Now it seems to be late, we needed to condemn at the time of the events happened. Generally, I think that we can win genocide with our power.”
During our conversation, there was a reference to voicing patriotic calls in social networks. Our interlocutor, who, in fact, had just returned from the border and was again going back to the border, said that practical patriotism is more correct. On the other hand, he is against verbiage and is convinced that if every one, starting from the teachers and ending with the army officer, perform its job well, we would have a powerful homeland.
