"DEFENCE OF LIBERATED TERRITORIES" CALL ON RA AUTHORITIES NOT TO MAKE DEFEATIST STATEMENTS
YEREVAN, APRIL 7, NOYAN TAPAN. "It's a pity that the Defence Minister
speaks about concessions, such statements strike a blow on our
army, our servicemen's spirit," Zhirayr Sefilian, coordinator of
the "Defence of Liberated Territories" public initiative, declared
during the April 7 press conference while commenting upon RA Defence
Minister Serge Sargsian's statements made lately. Declaring that he is
speaking on behalf of the Karabakh war participants, Sefilian called
on the Armenian authorities "to stop such conversations," otherwise,
according to him, "they will be punished very strictly." During the
press conference it was also mentioned that the "Defence of Liberated
Territories" public initiative has repeatedly warned that the Karabakh
policy of the current regime is the continuation of the previous one
and is "defeatest at least to the same extent." "Today the failure
of Armenian authorities in Karabakh policy may be confirmed. The
concessions made by words and, in fact, also in practice, as a matter
of fact, lead the international community into error and the latter
makes its demands towards Armenia much stricter," Armen Aghayan,
political secretary of the organization, declared. According to him,
"adventurous policy" is carried on by the country's authorities,
which leads the Armenian people to a "deadlock fraught with the gravest
consequences." The statement of the "Defence of Liberated Territories"
initiative was also publicized during the press conference, according
to which "numerous opinions voiced in the official reports during the
March 29-30 NA hearings were obviously expressed for a special purpose
of including them into the Karabakh settlement package." According to
the authors of the statement, it's the first time that the Armenian
party "voluntarily puts into circulation formulations containing
concessions" before getting the Co-chairmen's proposals. At the
same time, according to the document, the Armenian people will never
put up with surrenderring any part of their homeland, infringing on
national security and political deals concluded at the expense of
national interests. "Not to take this into consideration is equal to a
political suicide for political factions ruling at present, factions
assisting them, as well as those pretending on it. We are sure that
they have finally lost the right to decide the people's fate, to
speak on behalf of the people and will be inevitably punished," the
"Defence of Liberated Territories" initiative declared.
