The main way in which the “I have no enemies” statement is implemented is, first and foremost, in national life. In this regard, we have much to learn from figures like Gandhi. Internal disagreements and debates are, of course, inevitable, but they can also be overcome by discussing things in a restrained and respectful atmosphere. No matter what class we put Armenians in- ‘present’ or ‘former,’ ‘pro-Soros’ or ‘anti-Soros,’ ‘pro-Putin’ or ‘pro-Trump,’ or an LGBT activist or homophobe- as well as members of political parties or non-partisan individuals, and no matter whether those divisions are real or imagined, Armenians in Armenia and Armenians across the world cannot be enemies. The realization that everyone has their place in the national cause creates a huge resource of strength. Looking for an enemy under every bush, on the contrary, makes us vulnerable. If someone has committed a crime, they, of course, need to be punished, but that does not make them an enemy.
