ArmInfo. Yeraskh is the gateway to Yerevan. Be vigilant, do not think that after the shameful Artsakh war and defeat, they simply shoot at the gates leading to Yerevan. This is not the handwriting of Azerbaijan, but of Turkey. The former Deputy Minister of Defense of the Republic of Armenia, former MP from the Republican Party Artak Zakaryan, shares this opinion.
"If the state chooses shame, choosing between war and shame, then it gets both war and shame. This was said by Winston Churchill. Choosing Nikol (acting Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan - ed. note), we chose shame, and consequently, a possible war. Recently, during a meeting with Charles Michel in Yerevan, Nikol talked about the possibility of new military clashes. We have been talking about this from December 2020 to the present day. But what's the point? Those who hear are deaf, and those who see are blind. We live in very difficult times, "Zakaryan noted.
The former deputy defense minister called on the country's authorities to stop the political persecution of the opposition and put an end to the domestic political show. "Be responsible to the state and its citizens! Get together, unite, finally come to your senses," Zakaryan summed up. Note that since last week, the enemy has periodically arranged provocations in different parts of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border. The day before, there was an attempt to make a breakthrough in the Yeraskh sector. The Armenian Defense Ministry reported on the use of grenade launchers by the Azerbaijani Armed Forces. As a result of the enemy's provocations, a contract soldier of the Armenian Armed Forces was killed on July 14, and the head of the Yeraskhavan community was wounded tonight.
