Third President of Armenia:  peace agreement, if signed, to be double  capitulation

ArmInfo.The peace agreement, if signed, will be a double capitulation. Third President of Armenia, Serzh Sargsyan, stated on February 16 in a conversation with journalists.

Thus, when asked to assess what happened in Nerkih Hand, when four  Armenian servicemen were killed as a result of enemy fire, the third  President of Armenia expressed more conviction that this was an  illogical continuation of those actions that the Armenian people had  previously witnessed.

"And if you remember, weeks earlier, right here in a conversation  with you, I already said that this peace agreement, if signed, would  become a double capitulation. As we see, the Azerbaijani discourse is  replenished with new terminology, which is already expressed in the  form of commands and instructions.

I do not rule out that the incidents in Nerkin Hand will be repeated,  perhaps in other areas. Yesterday we heard a small notification of  this at a government meeting," Sargsyan noted, expressing his  conviction that as a result of this pressure something will simply be  given up again.

According to him, this will continue until the journalists gathered  here, the political forces of Armenia and first of all the Armenian  people, at least the part that is not indifferent to the fate of  their homeland, send this "power home". 

Regarding the demands of the President of Azerbaijan regarding the  Constitution of Armenia, the politician noted that the Azerbaijani  leader does not hint at changing the main law of Armenia. According  to him, Aliyev has already spoken publicly several times, and for the  first time 2 years ago, he spoke, or rather, demanded a change in the  main law of our country.  "I don't think that the delay of time by  today's rulers of Armenia is anything other than an attempt to  prolong their stay in power.

If these authorities could not even equip the front line in 3.5  years, then what will that 'time' give them?  Maybe a miracle will  happen and Azerbaijan will give up its demands? But this is  impossible. I repeat, capitulation kills the will of the capitulator,  and we are dealing with situation when one thing is replaced by  another. That is, the will that manifests itself in internal life is  used to compensate for lack of will in external relations," said the  third President of Armenia.

To clarify whether there could be a new war, Sargsyan stated that a  war is going on between the parties that will at least to some extent  be able to fight at least for a certain period of time.

To clarify, that is, Armenia does not have the political will for  this or the army does not have the capabilities, Sargsyan noted that  it is difficult to say what level of resource the Armenian army has,  since it does not have precise information about this. "But the fact  that this will is not there, that our army is being forced to play  the role of an even weaker one, is obvious. If you respond to the  opponent's demand within a few hours, and ask for patience and  promise to conduct an investigation to find the culprits because of  some shot, then tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, when the  Azerbaijanis begin to put pressure, our military will not even want  to resist, since they can be punished for this resistance, etc.,"  Sargsyan concluded.
