Another tragedy of the Armenian people continues. After the Azerbaijani attack, the fate of Artsakh Armenians is at least uncertain. Artsakh Armenians, who have lived in their historical homeland for thousands of years, are becoming refugees before the eyes of us, the State, and the people of Armenia.

And, to put it mildly, it is a mockery of fate that the Prime Minister of Armenia responded to Azerbaijan’s attack.

“They want to involve us in the war; it will not work.” Can you imagine a leader of another country who does not care about the fate of his fellow citizens? I don’t think that there has been another such case in the entire world history. After such a reaction, the world will despise the leadership of Armenia and the whole Armenian people for tolerating such a one.

With his words, the so-called prime minister also justified to the international community that he does not apply sanctions against genocidal Azerbaijan and its leader. Indeed, if Armenia does not support its compatriots and begs to meet with its “good-natured” partner of Azerbaijan, we have nothing to demand from any country or international organization.

Of course, I am far from the idea that if it were not for the prime minister’s statement, then the international community would impose severe punishments on Azerbaijan. As always, whether it was 100 years ago, today, or 100 years from now, every State moved, is moving, and will move solely based on its national interests.

Every State, except Armenia, because people have come to Power in Armenia for whom the important thing is not national but purely personal interest.

But, to my surprise and despite the author of my lines, it started… Finally, the civilized world reacted decisively to the tragedy that befell our people, just like after the 1915 genocide, expressing their willingness to provide humanitarian aid.

Thus, France, a strong Armenian lover, Sweden, a bastion of democracy, and Japan, a friend of our country, are announcing humanitarian aid without giving each other a turn. , and the USA, the bearer of democracy, expressed its support in words and deeds, sending the Deputy Secretary of State and USAID Director to Armenia.

The high-ranking guests expressed their support to the leadership of Armenia, conveying the warm message of the US President. And to the naive question of the journalist why the USA does not impose sanctions on Azerbaijan, the Deputy Secretary of State answered: “The US position on this issue is apparent, and we will continue to do everything to take care of people, their immediate needs.”

Thus, the USA is ready to provide humanitarian support to the refugees, in its own words, “Karabakh separatists,” while continuing military aid to Azerbaijan. The same is true of the United Europe, committed to the democratic values of the EU, which increases the import of energy carriers from Azerbaijan.

It is also interesting that the entire civilized world does not notice the establishment of the dictatorship in Armenia: the violence, beatings, arrests, and the increasing number of political prisoners. Not only does not notice, but on the contrary, the Head of the delegation of the European Parliament for relations with the South Caucasus, Marina Kaljurand, is worried about the anti-government demonstrations.

Will we finally understand that these are international law, the international community, democracy, and human rights? Hardly, and I’m afraid that even if we understand, it will be too late.
