ArmInfo. Giving up Artsakh territories will be followed by struggle already for Armenian territories not for former NKAO, which will disappear very fast once it is found in a "sack", Armen Martirosyan, the vice chairman of the Legasy party shared his opinion with Armnifo.
In due course, following the guarantees of superpowers, Ukraine also gave up the "liberated territories" and the nuclear arsenal. Today we see the result - the country has lost the Crimea and struggles for the rest. The territories were liberated by people, by soldiers and exactly the people should make appropriate decisions. And, according to April information, they are not intented to give up those territories. In this context the approaches of Karabakh settlement, proposed by Levon Tr Petrosyan at ANK Congress, are not acceptable," the politician stated.
Without disproving the fact of migration from Armenia in 90-ies, including the reasons of war and war threat, Martirosyan accentuated that the main part of the people, despite hard social and economic conditions, held a heroic struggle and won. The main wave of emigration started after the Karabakh war and had moral and psychological reasons, just like it happens by today. At the same time the politician stated he is confident that at east the public reaction to the thesis proposed by Ter-Petrosyan is the brightest evidence of his political weight remaining essential. It is obvious also that the First President's opinion is still accepted by public, though his followers are still in minority.
