Armenians of Kessab have decided to return to Kessab
29/04/2014
We're not expecting miracles to happen and see the liberation of our
hometown of Kessab overnight, but after receiving the news, the people
are in a good mood and are waiting for more news. However, we have to
do everything possible to prevent the fourth deportation of the
Armenians of Kessab. Being optimistic is a good thing, but being
realistic is more correct.
This is what member of the Kessab executive body Garo Manjigian said
in an interview with GALA as he addressed the news according to which
Kessab has been liberated.
`We were told that the Syrian army has liberated the police
headquarters in Kessab and that the army is bombing and wiping the
city, but it's too early to speak about the liberation. It would be a
miracle, but in any case, we're waiting with hope.'
Manjigian also underlined the fact that they have news from the army
that Kessab will be liberated soon.
`The army is struggling, and it's too early to talk about liberation.
We can't expect it to happen overnight.'
GALA also asked about the Armenians taking shelter in Latakia and the
current situation. `The Armenians of Kessab in Latakia, regardless of
political affiliation and different views, are convinced that the best
decision is to return to Kessab, irrespective of everything. We have
hope and are reinforced, without any exaggeration and with logic. The
best policy is to have the people return to their residences.'
