 RPA: Even "liberal" Europe doesn`t deny its history to the extent  that the RA Prime Minister denies the history of the Armenian people

ArmInfo. Even "liberal" Europe doesn't deny its history to the extent that RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan denies the history of the Armenian people.   Armen Ashotyan, Deputy Chairman of the Republican Party of Armenia,  wrote this on his Facebook page.

According to him, the Tatras, Matra, and Fatra are the names of three  Carpathian mountains, that hold significant importance in the  national symbols of Hungary and Slovakia, including their coats of  arms.  Moreover, Slovakia uses the symbol of these mountains on its  national flag. From a national symbolism perspective, the situation  is even more complex, as two of the three peaks-the Tatras and  Fatra-are located in Slovakia, while Matra is located in Hungary. 

"You understood correctly, I want to use another example to  demonstrate the full perniciousness of Pashinyan's "innovation", who  suffers from xenophobia and with extreme stupidity has stretched a  Turkish yataghan over national identity. The simultaneous use of  mountains by two EU member states that I mentioned was not and is not  considered as a territorial claim against each other, revanchism, or  an obstacle to regional cooperation or conflict-free neighborliness.  Slovakia was under Hungarian rule for centuries, the borders in this  area often changed, there are many other mountains in Slovakia, but  no one speaks out against the original heights, which are now located  in Hungary, but have become part of national symbolism. At the  official level, no one in both states contrasts the "real Hungary"  with the "real Slovakia". 

There are many similar examples of official heraldry in Europe. The  same Spanish national coat of arms depicts the Pillars of Hercules,  with one of them symbolizing Gibraltar, which is under British rule.  This didn't prevent both countries from being EU members  simultaneously for 34 years and remaining NATO members to this day.  Even more confusing is the use of the tribal coat of arms symbolizing  former Silesia in European coats of arms. Most of Silesia is now in  Poland, but the black eagle on a gold background that symbolizes it  is present in the national coats of arms of the Czech Republic and  Liechtenstein, but absent from Poland's symbolism," the RPA deputy  chairman emphasized.
