“Berdzor is being prepared for evacuation, the city is being prepared to be handed over”: Naira Zohrabyan

Naira Zohrabyan, head of the Security and Democracy human rights NGO and former MP, referring to the Facebook post of former Chief of Staff of the Constitutional Court, Ambassador Edgar Ghazaryan, called on the leaders of Armenia and Artsakh not to dare to discuss the current corridor through Berdzor, which, according to the November 9 statement, is the only guaranteed option connecting Artsakh to Armenia, said, “I call upon the opposition. Colleagues, if you want your steps to really be efficient, I suggest, for example, to move tomorrow’s rally to Berdzor. I am with you. Our political and moral priority must be in Berdzor today. This morning, my French colleagues, I think, also saw the footage that sent me the pictures of the asphalt road. Tomorrow is not the next day, Aliyev will finish the asphalting of the road bypassing Berdzor.

And if it seems to you that this road is being built for you, for us, that we should go to Stepanakert by passing Berdzor and Aghavno, you are deeply mistaken. This road is being asphalted and is being prepared to occupy Syunik. I now turn to the parliamentary opposition. There is nothing to walk in the streets of Yerevan. We are all together, I will go, whether you come or not, I will go. Because now our priority should be Berdzor. It is very true that according to the information, the Armenia and I Have Honor alliances are now in Artsakh. And not when Berdzor is surrendered to convene an urgent rally on that occasion.

No. When you call for the deputies to form a living wall, now we must all form a living wall together in Berdzor, because in a few days the flag of Azerbaijan will be raised in Berdzor and Aghavno. Moreover, I was given very sad information that the electrical wires in Berdzor have started to be dismantled. In other words, they are preparing the city for evacuation, they are preparing to hand over the city. And a few more people will burn down their homes. I do not want to see that scene of people burning down their house in Berdzor and Aghavno, so that their house does not reach the Turks, they will migrate like nomads.

I repeat: Please stop those walks. I can understand any tactic. But I repeat. Our front line is now in Berdzor. And Nikol, the references of different political forces that with the capitulation memorandum of November 9, 2020 it is handed over and we can do nothing, gather in the Republic Square, in Armenia and lower the state flags from all state institutions in Artsakh, whoever wants, kneel down. But no. There will be no surrender. This word is also addressed to the opposition. It is enough to wait for what they will say… Do not be upset by criticism. I do not criticize you as an end in itself.

When your mistake is not criticized, you make a mistake with a mistake. I do not want that to happen, because Nikol and Nikolism handed over Artsakh, now he will hand over Armenia.”
