“Did you see that day when our sportsman was hit with a baton? I recalled that this redneck nation is unable to solve a problem without a baton. It is the genetic code of this nation. In a place, they cut off the ear, in another place, he is a sportsman and instead of using strength, he was applied to a method dear to him,” – said RPA faction MP, a member of NA Foreign Affairs Committee, Hamlet Harutyunyan, in an interview with Aravot.am, referring to Azerbaijan’s anti-Armenian policy. He told, “I have seen how they are opening the belly of a pregnant woman (this woman was in our neighboring village) and taking the child out. I have seen worse things than that from them.” When we reminded that people were also talking about his party friend and Syunik Governor Surik Khachatryan that he has shot at the belly of a pregnant woman and killed the baby, so they are surprised at the Turks, Hamlet Harutyunyan responded, “Please, do not say such things, I have not heard anything like that. Surik Khachatryan has not done anything like that. If there was a trial, it was not that way. I’m talking about the Turks and not about Armenians. There could also be such people among Armenians, but it is about their methodology, your example was wrong. We should not compare. There was no case in the history of the world that the Armenian was compared to an Ottoman. Everyone knows the image of an Armenian and the image of an Ottoman, Turkish, Tatar and Mongol. They have given the world history examples of cruelty while Armenians have given cultural and scientific examples. I am saying this with national pride, and not I but the advanced humanity is sure of it.”
