ARMENIA IN THE FOCUS OF NEW DIVISION OF THE WORLD

The presidents of the United States, Poland and Israel have already
announced that they will not attend the celebration of the 70th
anniversary of victory in World War II. The president of France has
announced that he will arrive in Yerevan on April 24 to attend the
events to mark the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.
These two events are closely linked, first of all by the fact of
an ongoing strange war of wars. Russia is trying to prove that the
current world was established after World War II and Russia which has
defeated fascism has an immense role in it. The Georgievskaya Lenta
(Saint George Ribbon) symbolizes the role of Russia in building the
new world order.
It is not accidental that recently a monument to Churchill, Roosevelt
and Stalin was set up in Yalta to symbolize Russia's participation
in the division of the world.
The Western states, however, insist that the world order established
after World War I in which Russia did not participate is still valid.
In 1917 Russia left the war and did not participate in the peace
conference in Versailles. The peace conference of Paris mostly
concerned the division of the Ottoman Empire.
In the process of division of the world, after World War I Soviet
Russia was able to sign the treaties of Kars and Moscow with Turkey
which divided Armenia.
In 2014 the West marked the start of World War I and the European
politicians were wearing red poppies all through the year.
The forget-me-not of the Armenian genocide reminds the European
Remembrance Poppy rather than the Russian Georgievskaya Lenta.
Perhaps, a full stop to the issue of the Armenian Genocide will be
put only in case of revision of the outcome of World War I, not World
War II.
It is increasingly obvious that the world is moving towards revision
of the current world order. Last year Kurdistan announced likely
to hold a referendum of independence, and apparently the West will
not resist to that process. However, it would mean revision of the
outcome of World War I and division of the Ottoman Empire.
The Russian government is trying to participate in the change of the
world order. However, if World War I is concerned, Russia will have
no place around the table of the talks. Putin is actively promoting
the idea of the world order established after World War II but judging
by the rejection of the presidents of the United, Poland and Israel,
these countries do not recognize the role of Russia as a participant of
"division of the world".
If the world order established after World War I is revised, one of
the key issues will be revokation of the Russian-Turkish treaties on
the division of Armenia.
Will Serzh Sargsyan go to Moscow on May 9? Will the Russian president
visit Yerevan on April 24? On which side will Armenia and the Diaspora
be? Judging by the Pan-Armenian Resolution which has been adopted
in Yerevan recently, the leadership of Armenia and the Diaspora
are prone to restoration of the Treaty of Sevres and revocation of
the Treaties of Moscow and Kars. The Armenian parliamentary forces,
however, dislike the resolution.
Hence, April 24 may be lustration for the Armenian political forces.
