SOCIETY OR "MEAT FOR GUNS"

The statements of the U.S. Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Mathew
Bryza would have aroused a strong reaction in another country. And
Sabine Freizer's threats would have sparked heated debate.
Apparently, the mediators had expected such a reaction. They might
have been hopeful that the angry public would stand up and invite
their own leadership to account.
"I think Bryza's statements are a peculiar message to the Armenian
and Azerbaijani publics. Simply Mr. Bryza and company are not aware
of the awareness and politicization of both publics, their ability to
affect the political atmosphere. In my opinion, they overestimated the
level of preparedness of the publics of Armenia, Azerbaijan and NKR,
or their level in general. Therefore, Sabine Freizer is surprised
why no "quakes" are reported in the public and political sphere,"
said NKR Member of Parliament Gegham Baghdasaryan.
"It is another question that the same "company" did their best for
the three communities to appear in the same state. The publics have
always been neglected by their own governments, mediators, other
international actors. Now the same people are sending a message to the
same publics. The publics must be able to perceive the context of this
message, read between lines, because it is a challenge. If they fail to
understand, if they fail to read between the lines, they will explain
it "more simply", suitable for our level and perception, to enable us
to feel and understand with all our senses. In any case, we understood
that we should take this step, the publics should take this step,
that if we digest our leaderships, they do not have a problem. In
other words, they will blame the same publics rather than their
leaderships, the same publics, which have been neglected by everyone,
and temporarily make "meat of negotiations" out of "meat for guns".
It is possible that they will try to explain it more "simply" in the
same "gun meat" logic," said the member of parliament.
