Artsakh war hero Arkadi Ter-Tadevosyan believes Armenia is afraid of
giving Turkey an adequate response.
"We haven't raised the issue of Nakhichevan or Kars to this day, but we
should be the ones setting preconditions," Ter-Tadevosyan told "A1+".
He reaffirmed that he is against the opening of the Turkish-Armenian
border and doesn't approve of the Armenian government's policy.
"As an average citizen, I don't understand why Nalbandyan signed the
Protocols. Before starting relations with the Turks, we must first
study their diplomacy, which is based on lies and falsehood," he said.
Ter-Tadevosyan considered Azerbaijan's frequent bellicose announcements
as nonsensical. "Our combativeness and skills are more powerful. Of
course, Azerbaijan has a strong army, an enormous military budget
and is technically equipped, but humans play a great role during
the battle."
As far as Stepanakert's participation in the negotiations on the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is concerned, according to him, that is a
matter of time. "The conflict won't be solved without the participation
of Nagorno-Karabakh. In addition, recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh
Republic's independence is the equivalent to death for Azerbaijan
because in that case, other nations living in that country will raise
the same demand," he said.
Meeting
"Youth" NGO members hosted representatives of the generation of the
Great Patriotic and Artsakh wars with support from the Armenian
Assembly of America Office in Yerevan. The five veterans of the
Great Patriotic War and commander during the Artsakh war Arkadi
Ter-Tadevosyan were greeted with a standing ovation.
"We had no issue of going or not going to the battlefield. Many of
us joined voluntarily and went to defend the homeland. Nobody thought
twice," said veteran of the Great Patriotic War Rosalia Margaryan.
Another veteran attached importance to a precept-to study and read
a lot of books.
Arkadi Ter-Tadevosyan started his memoir by expressing gratitude to
the veterans.
"You taught us heroism and set an example with your endeavors. It
was that example that guided us when we were putting our lives on
the line for Shushi," said Ter-Tadevosyan.
In the end, the youth handed souvenirs to the heroes as a sign of
gratitude. The day's heroes were going to leave for Moscow to take
part in the military parade dedicated to the 65th anniversary of the
Great Victory.
