ArmInfo. In full view of independent Armenia and its armed forces, a massacre of our compatriots is taking place in Artsakh. First Prime Minister of post-Soviet Armenia and former Minister of Defense of the Republic of Armenia Vazgen Manukyan stated at a rally on September 20.
He recalled that in 1993, as Minister of Defense, he hosted a parade of the victorious army on the square. <However, today the situation has changed dramatically, and who could believe it then. We should not forget about the statements of Turkish President Erdogan, who indicated the existence of agreements with RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan regarding Syunik and enclaves," Manukyan said, adding that if the parties agree, this means mutual obligations. <Have we received anything from Turkey or Azerbaijan? Apparently Nikol got something. The most surprising thing is that a corrupt journalist, who raised the flag of the fight against corruption, became the leader of Armenia," said the ex-prime minister, adding that if there had not been Nikol Pashinyan, there would have been no agreements.
The oppositionist also criticized the position of Russia, which, according to Manukyan, entered into an alliance with Turkey for some interests. The explanations of the Russian Foreign Ministry that Yerevan itself recognized the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan are just a reason for justification.
