Marianna Mkrtchyan. Vitaly Balasanyan, the secretary of the NKR National Security Council, the hero of Artsakh, reacted harshly to the statement of Sasun Mikayelyan, headed by Nikol Pashinyan, about the victory of the people in the revolution more important than the Artsakh liberation war.

So, Balasanyan's statement says in particular: "Unfortunately, I have to state what happened in the Motherland. The national liberation struggle, founded in 1988, is the victory of our people living in Armenia, Artsakh and the Diaspora. NKR is an achievement and the pride of all Armenians. It is surprising and even angered that these days, during the election campaign to the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia, this is speculated and underplayed in some kind of party interests. The revolution that took place in Armenia in the last period cannot be considered a more serious victory than the Artsakh liberation war, and even more so than the creation of the second Armenian Republic. Such statements at least cast doubt on the participation of such persons in the state-building process. and the fact that such statements are made in the presence of the Supreme Commander of Armenia. Come on in yourself, guys! "

It should be noted that Sasun Mikayelyan, a member of the Armenian parliament, a member of the My Step bloc led by Nikol Pashinyan, believes that the victory of the people in the revolution is more important than the Artsakh war of liberation. "We won the Artsakh war. I'm not afraid to say that this victory that you, the people, won in our country is more important than the Artsakh liberation war," Mikayelyan said during the election campaign with the participation of premiere of Armenia in the city of Talin.
