“Today, we have to choose between war and peace. Let’s take into account that the war is against Azerbaijan and Turkey. That the extent of their possible help is clear from Russia’s current situation, that we see what the international community thinks, we see that territorial integrity is more common than the self-determination of nations, it turns out that war is equal to an adventure,” Gevorg Papoyan, deputy of the Civil Contract faction of the RA NA, stated in a conversation with journalists in the National Assembly, adding that their team chooses the way to achieve the peace agenda, which has no alternative.
The MP said he listened to Nikol Pashinyan’s press conference and the subsequent criticisms of the opposition MPs. He said those criticisms were about nothing; he did not hear a single suggestion that would make him think they are doing something wrong with the ruling team and must try differently.
“I will add that in the event of a war, we will endanger the existence of independent Armenia, and for us, the right of Armenians to live in their own country is paramount. And Armenia has been brought to this state by the forces that have been silently negotiating for years to cede the territories of Armenia and Artsakh, at the same time looted Armenia and Artsakh, and did not strengthen the army,” said Papoyan.
The member of the ruling power claims that after the war, Azerbaijan has already invested billions in Aghdam in this short period, wondering if the previous authorities had invested several hundred thousand drams in 20-25 years.
