Armenians do not want to see Russian flags and boots on parade on
their independence day. For this purpose they are even planning to
hold a rally "against foreign troops and flags." organizers of the
rally say: "anyone who thinks that there is no place for troops and
flags of other countries at the military parade to celebrate our
independence are invited to a parade of protest"
Russian forces that are stationed in Gyumri intend to take part in
the independence day parade. According to spokesman of the Defence
Ministry of Armenia, it will symbolize deep foundations of the
Armenian-Russian cooperation in defence sphere.
It has become a practice of the Russian military to hold parades
in areas they consider theirs. This is done to remind residents of
these territories who's the boss there. That was how they celebrated
"independence" day in Tskhinvali. Under the Russian national anthem
and flag. How far has Armenia gone from ambiguous Tskhinvali entity?
It is Armenian people who is to show this.
