Political analytic: It is time for Armenians to get rid of the myth  "The whole world is against us"

Political analytic: It is time for Armenians to get rid of the myth  "The whole world is against us"

ArmInfo. It is high time for us, the Armenians, to start getting rid of myths in the spirit of "the whole world is against us," "we are against the whole world,"  "everything will only get worse and worse." Director of the Armenian  Center for Strategic and National Studies Manvel Sargsyan expressed  this opinion to ArmInfo.

"Armenian society has been kept in fear for the last 30 years,  assuring people that the Turks are about to be slaughtered,  destroyed, etc. People were afraid, they were silent and they are  still silent today. This is not surprising, our society is scared and  it is high time to overcome such phobias. It is necessary to  understand what the world offers us today. And he offers us to  understand what is relevant and what is archaic. Now, the Armenian  authorities have substantially clarified the rhetoric of Artsakh,  which has led our society, and so scared, to a state of horror, "he  noted.

Meanwhile, according to a political analyst, the situation is almost  the same in Azerbaijan, before which the Armenian authorities have  put clear questions, making it clear that the time for jokes has  passed. However, the Armenian society does not notice all this, for  some reason, and the public agenda does not go beyond talking about  Soros, garbage cans, etc. nonsense. According to the analyst, all  this says one thing - it's time for the Armenian society to start  healing.

According to the analyst, the society should realize the danger of  aimless negotiations on Artsakh in the name of the negotiations  themselves. To realize that all this will sooner or later lead to  war, as happened in April 2016.

Nevertheless, some progress, according to his estimates, is still  taking place. In particular, the speech of the Director of the  National Security Service of Armenia on the border with Iran is an  attempt to seriously talk, to instill in Baku the complete absence in  Armenia of the desire to give something to someone.

According to his estimates, in his talks on Artsakh, Prime Minister  Nikol Pashinyan adopted clear and simple principles understandable to  the whole world. "Any settlement option should be acceptable to the  peoples of Armenia, Karabakh and Azerbaijan." German Chancellor  Angela Merkel immediately assessed these words as "a bold step to  resolve the conflict," stressing the need for readiness for similar  steps by Baku. And Baku's unwillingness to solve the problem on the  basis of these principles deprives further negotiations of any  meaning.
