ArmInfo. We are leaving Artsakh, which no longer exists. There is no one else to pacify in Karabakh - Azerbaijan got what it wanted, having been preparing revenge for decades. Famous Russian journalist - war correspondent, analyst and blogger Yuri Kotenok wrote on his Telegram channel. As a journalist who supports the principle of the people's right to self-determination, Kotenok covered the course of the second Karabakh war, during which he was seriously wounded and barely survived.
As the military correspondent writes, "now the aggressor is demolishing artifacts of the Armenian heritage in Karabakh. There is nothing new under the sun - they tear down crosses on churches, break furniture in abandoned Armenian apartments, break gravestones and defecate on monuments. This is how savages behave. Well, it's hard to expect nobility from another civilizational model. There is a bar there. Everything is forgiven to them. After all, hitting temples it's ok there, a sign of taste and strength. But enough about savages; They are meant for us to stay awake.
We're talking about Armenians. The exodus became a collapse for more than a hundred thousand people who were abandoned and forgotten by the leadership of Armenia and their own compatriots. Meager crumbs as monthly compensation for Artsakh residents, are you serious about this? No handouts will ever replace people's Motherland! But you need to fight for the Motherland, fight in the literal sense. Fight. If there are no generals and leaders, you need to ask God for them. You need to beg. But this is for those who know how and want to pray. No one can help the Armenians at the moment. Probably, expectations were different, hence the dissatisfaction with the contingent of peacekeepers from Russia.
I have many questions for the Russian mission in Artsakh. They remained unanswered. But the main thing is still different - the people who refused to defend their homeland are deprived of their homeland. It is taken from them by a strong, never-sleeping enemy. Battalions of Armenian volunteers were not allowed to fight for the Fatherland. Cleverly and cunningly they poured the steam of protest of Armenians in Armenia and around the world into a whistle. We washed our hands. Now those who act as a conductor of Western technologies in Armenia can be happy - Russia is leaving Karabakh, the degree of Russophobia in the country is slowly increasing according to the Ukrainian version, and there is a rapprochement with the West more than ever. They value, promise, inspire, give hope. Now they will demand the removal of the Russian base in Gyumri.
Armenians are facing new challenges. But, to be honest, the freedom promised by the West is not particularly impressive. Invasion of the ubiquitous Hindus in Yerevan- only the forerunner of big changes. The British promise to give money for batches of migrants to mono-ethnic Armenia, probably to slightly "dilute" the Armenians. Or is this trolling from London? Gay parades will be held in Yerevan (the price of visa-free travel with the EU) under police protection. The Armenians, who "ate" the loss of Artsakh, will "eat" this too. Yes, they are about to be told to remove Ararat from the coat of arms. Will they remove it too? There will be visa-free travel, increased trade and prices. With the loss of villages in Tavush, permission from Azerbaijan will be required to travel from Yerevan on vacation to Tbilisi. Its checkpoints will cut off the "road of life" of Armenia. There, in Baku, they will decide whether to let the Armenians gas or, conversely, turn off the tap. Such a castrated world surrounded by enemies. Is this exactly what the Armenians wanted? And the Russians, yes, are leaving Artsakh, which no longer exists".
