He recalled the recent words of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan that he strives to ensure that the Armenian population enjoys its neighborhood with Azerbaijan: “It’s good that Azerbaijan is 50 meters away, we will trade there”.
The Archbishop believes that the genocide occurred because the Armenians “They believed more in the benevolence of the enemy than in their courage, they trusted more in Turkish benevolence and generosity than in their national dignity and their natural desire for self-defense.”.
Today history repeats itself, and the selfless obsession with which the Armenian authorities are working with the Turkish-Azerbaijani tandem to create the architecture of the “era of peace” seems like a betrayal: “We are offered the illusion of a life in coexistence with the executioners. And this is done only under the trusted “guidance” of the current leaders of our country.”Khachatryan said.
