    NALBANDYAN'S CRISIS
    YEGHISHE METSARENTS

    Perhaps the most apt expressions about the Armenian language and
    in general about everything are made by the poet Yeghishe Charents
    who noted the flexibility and the barbarism of our language. Any
    example of speeches in Armenian shows either its flexibility or
    its barbarism. From this point of view, the news conference of the
    Armenian foreign minister on September 2 is worth mentioning. Edward
    Nalbandyan was speaking about the Armenian-Turkish protocols, in
    particular about the six-week period of internal consultations with
    the help of which the sides have to create public-political grounds
    in their countries to sign them.

    "Crisis work is expected", stated Edward Nalbandyan. Charenst would
    probably say which of the main characteristics of our language,
    flexibility or barbarism, this statement shows. We may also say that
    this statement does not speak about our language but about the current
    political enterprise of our political thought including the camp of
    language. The Armenian foreign minister is probably a supporter of
    the modern Armenian.

    Sure, the old language cannot correspond to the new thinking which the
    government spreads like rain in the country and in the region. A new
    language is needed for new thinking. Let even this language be a little
    incomprehensible. Nothing happens. The thinking is not understandable
    either. The day will come when it will be understood and evaluated.

    In any case, Edward Nalbandyan confuses the words "painstaking" and
    "crisis" (which in Armenian are similar) because in Armenian there
    is "painstaking" work and not "crisis" work, or maybe the Armenian
    foreign minister understands that the Armenian and Turkish relations,
    especially the released protocols do not contain anything else but
    only crisis preconditions and the situation of crisis in Armenia
    during the upcoming six weeks will enhance.
