The security and territorial integrity of Artsakh [(Nagorno-Karabakh)] and Armenia has been violated, the enemy has seized a part of our homeland, massacred thousands of soldiers, and now it has set his sights on Syunik [Province of Armenia]. Artur Ghazinyan, a member of the opposition "Armenia" Faction in the National Assembly of Armenia, wrote this on Facebook.

"And what are we [i.e., Armenians] doing? With a pass by the Azerbaijani occupation regime, we are nationally discussing the matter of placing a statue of Jesus Christ on top of Mount Hatis. Our situation is dire; we are not getting serious in any way," Ghazinyan added.
