We were instructed to do what we should not have done: Former press  secretary of Artsakh Defense Army

ArmInfo.Former press secretary of the Artsakh Defense Army, Colonel Senor Hasratyan, believes that, unlike the enemy, the people of Artsakh failed to understand the sequence of steps of the former NKR State Minister Ruben Vardanyan and the range of his goals.

<I don't know what we will gain by dismissing Ruben Vardanyan from  the post of state minister of Artsakh, but that after a while (as  always - belatedly) we will be convinced of the unfairness of this  decision, I have almost no doubt. Unlike our enemy, we failed to  understand the sequence of his steps and the range of his targets.

Some people consider him as a Russian protege, others - an English  agent, there are  still those who consider him a shareholder of gold  mines,  and those who consider that he is just a storehouse of money,  and some say that he is miraculously creating a paradise in Artsakh  and so on.

Meanwhile, in order to understand a person, especially a world famous  one, it takes time.  But we not only did not have time to understand  him, but simply did not want to: Instead, others understood and  instructed us to do what we should not have done.

P.S. The meaning and achievement of R. Vardanyan's stay in office for  100 days (at least for a thinking Artsakh people) is that, despite  the current and further positive and negative developments, HE has  now become ONE OF US:>, Hasratyan wrote on his Facebook page.

Earlier today, Ruben Vardanyan was dismissed from the post of NKR  State Minister. As ArmInfo wrote earlier, Varadanyan's resignation  was the demand of Azerbaijan and Turkey. Armenian media wrote that  during his visit to Turkey, RA Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan  promised Ankara to achieve the dismissal of Ruben Vardanyan. Thus, we  can assume that the process of the final absorption of Artsakh by  Azerbaijan has been launched, the only person interfering with this  has been removed from power.  It is noteworthy that back in December  last year, information resources affiliated with the President of  Artsakh reported that tense relations had developed between the head  of the NKR Arayik Harutyunyan and Ruben Vardanyan. Moreover, under  pressure from Yerevan, Harutyunyan tried to remove Vardanyan from his  post, but refrained from this step under public pressure. The reason  for the dissatisfaction of the authorities of the Republic of Armenia  was Vardanyan's public statements addressed to the team of the  current Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia. In particular,  Vardanyan accused the Armenian authorities of insufficient efforts in  unblocking the Lachin corridor.
