Women for the Preservation of Liberated Territories Roundtable Issues
a Statement
13:28 ¢ 24.10.09
Today the Women For the Preservation of Liberated Territories
Association organized a roundtable, after which participants issued
the following statement:
`States having strategic interests in the region ' the US, Russia,
Turkey and the European Union ' seem to have come to a common
agreement on the establishment of diplomatic relations between Armenia
and Turkey and on the settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh at the expense of
the national and state interests of the Armenian people.
`The Republic of Armenia current governing leadership and the person
holding the presidential post implement the will of the superpowers
unquestionably, subordinating and selling our state and national
interests to foreigners, from whom they receive corresponding
guarantees in maintaining the governing leadership which was seized
from the people in Armenia.
`Only a leadership which enjoys the Armenian people's trust has the
right to resolve the Armenian-Turkish issue. For that reason we find
that the solution to the current main problem is Serzh Sargsyan's
resignation. Without the solution of that problem it is impossible to
bring Armenia out of those dangerous international processes where
Armenian people's strategic interests are at risk.
`The Armenian people are ready to resist anything bound on them,
[including] encroachments from foreigners, ready to fight and defeat
the enemy that is greater in number than itself, if the force leading
the people in that fight and the sons of the nation standing among
them have shown with their life and deeds that they are devoted people
and resolute in rectifying the situation and in preventing this course
of betrayal.
`Today, the danger threatening the Armenian people's alarm calls are
resounded by those individuals who assess the situtation as equivalent
to the Battle of Sardarapat.
`We, the roundtable participants, welcome the idea of creating a
Sardarapat movement.'
Editor's note: the Battle of Sardarapat took place in 1918 near
Sardarapt, Armenia (not too far from the capital, Yerevan) and is
viewed as the battle which prevented not only Turkish advancement into
the rest of Armenia, but also the complete destruction of the Armenian
people.
