On January 12, at the Hayeli press club, former NA deputy Naira Zohrabyan said that she was surprised that no other politician besides her had been in Vardenis on Tuesday. She was referring to the representatives of the opposition because she has no expectations from the representatives of the government, because even in these conditions, “the former military admiral who became the spokesman of the government” declares that we can no longer expect danger from Turkey and Azerbaijan.
“Military operations are taking place on the sovereign border of Armenia. In fact, this is a war, and today, when you are at war, when you have a front with Azerbaijan, not a border, but a militarized zone and start the process of demarcation and delimitation in the militarized zone, this is a state betrayal.
My analysis is very simple: Nikol Pashinyan has verbal commitments in Sochi and Brussels to start the process of demarcation and delimitation. In my opinion, he is trying to flirt with the big players once again and prolong the process. Azerbaijan will not wait, Turkey will not wait, the major players interested in the region will not wait, and these actions on the sovereign border of Armenia are the answer to this,” said Naira Zohrabyan, recalling several verbal agreements announced after the meeting in Sochi. The statements made by Aliyev or Pashinyan about the demarcation-delimitation process.
“Nikol Pashinyan understands that the Azerbaijani herd has been in the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia since May 12, 2021… I consider the message spread by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs a political travesty. Ararat Mirzoyan, one should not repeat the same political ignorance and, say, pull both sides’ troops back bilaterally. Have we entered the sovereign territory of Azerbaijan? Azerbaijan has penetrated 41 km into the territory of Armenia,” said Naira Zohrabyan. As for the decision of the CSTO to send troops to Kazakhstan, which also includes the Armenian unit, the speaker said that, as a CSTO presiding country, Pashinyan could not help but agree to sending troops to Kazakhstan.

“That is why our parliamentary opposition is silent. Even more, it supports that step. In any case, I have not heard anything from the leaders. But there was a clear political and military justification for the fact that Armenia should not send either 70 or 100 of its military units to Kazakhstan. Armenia is at war today. The war is not over with the disgraceful, capitulatory, servile, Turk-like, slave-like capitulation treaty of November 9, 2020.”
She also added that thousands of accounts have been opened on social networks these days from Turkish and Azerbaijani sources with the names of Armenians, where various negative things are spread against the Kazakh people, endangering the lives of the Armenians in Kazakhstan.
