The incumbent authorities have made several serious mistakes and omissions over the past two-and-a-half years. This is what former Deputy Minister of Defense of Armenia Artak Zakaryan told reporters today.

According to him, the statements made by politicians and diplomats became the reason why the adversary relaunched scaled hostilities. “The incumbent authorities have made mistakes in many directions. In particular, they made serious omissions with regard to monitoring of violation of the balance of forces in the region. The Ministry of Defense failed to pay proper attention to this,” Zakaryan stated.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
