"When we sacrificed out lives in the war, we could have never thought
that one day it would become subject for sale. Today some people want
to sell high ideas in order to solve personal problems. Everything is
distorted, even the concept of being Armenian", this was the statement
made by NGO "Brotherhood of Liberation War" today.
On behalf of the 57 commanders President of the NKR Yerkrapah Union
Arkadi Karapetyan called on everyone to join the movement "Civic
Disobedience". Why have the commanders decided to speak about it
today? Mr. Karapetyan said, "Many of us understand Turkish and follow
the Azeri Mass Media. They used to announce that one day they might
take back the lost territories. Now they claim they will do it soon".
According to Arkadi Karapetyan, the RA authorities do not hide their
readiness to give them territories.
"If Serge Sargsyan announces that Aghdam has never been an Armenian
land, what does it mean?" Mr.
Karapetyan said angrily. The journalists reminded him about another
announcement of Serge Sargsyan that when we took the disputable lands
in 1994 we knew that we would exchange them later. "Serge Sargsyan is
too small a person to say such a thing. When did he say that? Could
he dare to say the same in 1992 or 1994?
No soldier would fight if he knew that later someone would decide to
give the lands they liberate to the Azeris".
Arkadi Karapetyan is especially worried about the fact that
Robert Kocharyan and Serge Sargsyan spoilt the reputation of the
Karabakhians. "I was against his coming to Armenia. Robert Kocharyan
was not elected in Karabakh either. On June 2, 1992, the whole
government of Armenia came to Karabakh in order to make people elect
him President of the country, but we didn’t. So he was appointed
President of the Defense Committee, and his career began".
Arkadi Karapetyan assured that the people of Karabakh do not put
trust in either the NKR or the RA authorities when it comes to the
settlement of the Karabakh conflict.
Arkadi Karapetyan also said he has his variant of mutual
compromise. "We have already compromised – we did not take
Baku". He especially underlined that they do not make militant
announcements. "Normal people do not want war. I have lost children,
friends and relatives. At this rate our nation will die without
any war".
The Council of Commanders of the "Brotherhood of Liberation War"
promised to represent 132 variants of the change of authorities. The
best variant adoring to them is the following, "Those people who have
seen war have only one variant: whatever he is not given he takes by
force. Those who want to give the liberated lands to the Azeris are
the same enemies to us who will have the same fate".
