    Chronicle of a tragedy

    November 23 2013


    The famous film director and actor Vardan Petrosyan appeared in a
    terribly difficult situation, and this is the case about which people
    say `I would not wish it even to my worst enemy.' Vardan is not an
    enemy, on the contrary, he is loved by thousands, and it's obvious. It
    is very likely that the victims of this tragic incident and their
    family members were once fascinated by Vardan Petrosyan's artistry.
    Personally, I do think that Vardan does not belong to those who
    escape, and his preliminary and hasty detention was not mandatory.
    Aspirations of Vardan's supports and especially his defending partners
    were more natural. They (Michael Poghosyan, Hrant Tokhatyan and
    others) are heartily willing to assist their friend and colleague in
    any way, who has appeared in a terrible psychological condition. The
    same is done by many of Vardan's other friends and fans, and it's very
    possible that this kind of support really leaves a beneficial effect
    on Vardan Petrosyan's terrible mental condition. It is natural that
    severely injured the other side (Vardan, in fact, is also a
    full-affected side) would have received a certain psychological
    support of their relatives and friends, but their support was mainly
    audible and visible for the `Niva' staff, because the Internet users
    were primarily and mainly Vardan's supporters, and the support of
    Vardan's supporters was prevailing in the internet. Actor and
    playwright Sergey Danielyan's (Yozh, trnaslator's note `hedgehog')
    support was a bit different from the others. He tried to objectively
    and equally be in the skin of both sides, and it seems the result was
    positive (unless, of course, it is possible to expect any positive
    result in this complex situation). The only positive thing in this
    situation would be if we do not deepen the abyss incurred between
    affected sides by fate with our words and opinions. In this situation,
    perhaps, keeping silent would be more correct rather than speaking.
    But, as you can see, I am also not good at keeping silent. I guess
    this is not the case when silence is gold. If the case had been handed
    over to a reasonable investigator, and if Vardan Petrosyan were not
    kept in pre-trial detention, keeping silent would be difficult again.
    I do not refer to constant activeness of Facebook and Internet users.
    This is the unique case when those constantly complaining about the
    existence of the Internet felt the need for the network and took
    advantage of it. And this is the case, I guess, when you have the
    difficulty to guess about who is correct: those keeping silent or
    those speaking. Because what happened was not a conflict between two
    hostile parties, but a terrible and cruel fate. And in the meantime,
    the most audible and comprehensive, perhaps, was Vardan Petrosyan's
    words from the bottom of the heart, which was really on demand, and
    which, apparently, found its place in the souls of people who were
    tuned differently. Unfortunately, this wound will not be cicatrized
    easily and quickly for both sides, and if our words would deepen the
    wound, then let's try to keep silent, and if our silence would deepen
    the wound, then, let's speak and dialect something, but carefully and
    in conscience, and the only thing that we must learn from this tragic
    incident is as follows: difficult and mandatory reconciliation has no
    alternative, and if we are unable to contribute to it, at least, let's
    not obstacle.
