Artsakh Ombudsman: I hope Armenian side negotiators understand that Artsakh people must not be turned into object

Armenia –

Even if a decision not corresponding to the interests of Artsakh is adopted, both the society and the elected government will boycott it, Artsakh Ombudsman Gegham Stepanyan said on the air of NEWS.am's Power Factor.

"I hope that the negotiators from the Armenian side will understand that they cannot just make an object out of the people of Artsakh and not take into account their opinions and go and negotiate something which is simply unacceptable to the people for whom they are negotiating. Even if we achieve that, I'm sure that both the people of Artsakh and the elected government will boycott that solution. Here again, the issue will be put on the international arena, and if that happens, the people of Artsakh will have to negotiate on their own behalf. After all, we speak about more than 100 thousand people, whose destiny shouldn't be decided by signature of either Armenia, or international community, or Azerbaijan," said Gegham Stepanyan.

Emil Lazarian: “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
