18:05 | December 23,2014 | Politics
Karabakh war veterans blame themselves for the anarchy in Armenia. The
Union of Freedom Fighters finds it their duty to participate in the
political processes in the country and fight against injustice.
"We have no moral right to remain silent," says Karabakh war veteran
Razmik Petrosyan.
Rustam Gasparyan, a lawmaker from the Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK),
says the spirits of their dead comrades-in-arms do not leave them
in peace.
"When we go to Yerablur, they talk to us and ask why their children go
hungry and without shoes. We understand that white genocide is hanging
over our heads but we are determined to fight till the end," he said.
The freedom fighters realize that the only way to bring the country
out of this deplorable state is to unseat the authorities and say
that even attacks and beatings cannot force them to change their mind.
"The authorities intend to provoke a conflict between freedom
fighters," said Gagik Melkonyan.
Starting January 1, the war veterans will again take up arms but this
time their weapon will be pen. The Union has launched a website to
convey their messages to public.
