KARABAKH WAR HEROES SAY SELF-PURIFICATION IMPORTANT FOR COMBATING INTERNAL ENEMY
11:48 30.07.13
Armenian choreographer Garik Ginosyan, who participated in the
Nagorno-Karabakh liberation struggle in the 1990s, says he ready
to assist in the war heroes' current efforts towards clearing the
country of the internal enemy.
"The process of purifying the country begins from individual
self-purification," he told Tert.am, expressing willingness to join
the veteran heroes' honest struggle.
Ginosyan said he considers the question actual enough to be raised
at any moment, without waiting till the situation becomes critical
enough to necessitate such measures. "Any nation in any period does
need a self-purification, so we do not have to wait till the things
reach a critical stage," he said.
The war veteran noted with regret that Armenia faced the opposite
processes after the war, instead of choosing self-purification. "It
is characteristic of all nations to by all means undergo a
self-purification process after wars, but Armenia didn't," he said,
calling for rapid efforts to think of necessary measures.
Singer and composer David Amalyan, who has also taken part in the
Karabakh war, said despite his love and respect for the veteran heroes,
he doesn't find himself the right person to back their current struggle
for social rights.
"I am ready to stand by them on any matter, but I haven't seen
and do not see myself in a social-political struggle," he told our
correspondent.
The musician said he doesn't quite understand the war heroes' claims
that their current struggle is not a political one. "I have no doubt
as to their blamelessness and honesty - not in the least - but no
struggle is likely to reach its target at the moment," he said.
But Amalyan agreed to Ginosyan's remarks that it is important to
clear the country of the internal enemy. "Our number one enemy is
of course the internal one; I attach more importance to the internal
enemy factor, but such a struggle would now playing into the internal
and external enemies' hands," he noted.
The singer said it is very sad to see public and political figures
divided between good and bad people in Armenia and added that the
protection of state interests should be a primary objective for all,
regardless of individual actors.
"For me, there are as many sects as there are political parties,"
he said, adding that he never distinguishes friends and allies on
grounds of party affiliation.
