The minister of foreign affairs of Armenia Shavarsh Kocharyan who was
asked to comment on the government decision to hand over several
hectares of land and premises said they are hardly worth 10 thousand
dollars. Instead, the Russians have leased a building to Armenia for
100 years. In 100 years the building will be returned to Russia,
whereas several hectares of land will remain the property of Russia,
if certainly other land is not given to Russia in the next 100 years.
Simple logic is to lease this land for 100 years.
100 years seem something remote, almost indefinite. However, in the
Armenian history land was given to others hectare by hectare, for `one
hundred years'. With such enviable stubbornness and consistency that
surprised even the most ruthless invaders.
Of course, there are no illusions that for the Armenian government the
territory of Armenia is a value, at least worth 10 thousand, unless it
is their personal property. There are numerous cases in the Armenian
history when the secular government and the clergy, nip and tuck, left
the country to the mercy of invaders to protect themselves.
Themselves, not the country and people. Galust Sahakyan was sincere
when he said if it were necessary, they would go to the Muslim world.
They would go anywhere to escape the problems of the country and to
keep their own possessions.
A little far from the government the space of the self-determined
citizen of Armenia was declared in the Mashtots Park. There the
citizen protects his space which is not only the material which does
not have a cadastre value and is not FOR SALE and TO LET. This space
is the dignity and rights of the Armenian people which will be
enlarged consistently, and will clear the country from those for who
the homeland is the square centimeters and hectares registered in the
cadastre.
