Levon Ter-Petrosyan on discussion around  terms "Armenian history"  and "History of Armenia"

ArmInfo.Why and how did the discussion around the terms <Armenian history> and <History of Armenia> arise?, Levon Ter-Petrosyan, the first president of Armenia, asks. 

<Today, on  Hraparak's website,  I carefully read an extensive  article by historian Vahagn Hakobyan regarding the ongoing discussion   around the terms <Armenian history> and <History of Armenia>. The  name <Armenian history> has never been a subject of analysis in  political terms, either by government officials or by historians, as  it has been perceived as both  the history of Armenia and  the  history of Armenians, that is, the Armenian people, and  the history  of Armenian emigrants.

In this case, the question naturally arises, why and how did the  current discussion around all of this arise?  The answer is very  simple: everything comes from Nikol Pashinyan - a glorious figure who  has no idea about history in general and the history of Armenia in  particular, yet still considers himself all-knowing, even after a  crushing and humiliating defeat from Azerbaijan.

Let me remind you how earlier, during a joint interview with Aliyev,  Pashinyan stutteringly boasted about the achievements of Tigran the  Great. It was difficult to imagine a more blatant and shameful  manifestation of provincialism. Regarding the motive of the author of  the aforementioned article, who wanted to please Pashinyan with his  mental exercises, then, of course, it is not worth talking about. His  fellow historians have already thoroughly responded to this,> Levon  Ter-Pertosyan wrote.
