ArmInfo. The fact that the leaderships of Azerbaijan and Turkey are "supporters" of the government of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan is nothing new, expert Tatevik Hayrapetyan writes in her article.
According to her, the issue of the Turkish leadership's apparent support for Pashinyan has become a subject of widespread public debate. "I've spoken about this repeatedly and supported it with facts: after all, anyone with basic logic understands perfectly well which countries' interests are served by the actions of the current Armenian authorities. But let's leave aside the topic of possible collaboration on the part of the current authorities. Let's assume that the situation is such that Pashinyan found "support" among them. Even then, if he were truly a servant of the Armenian people, he could have used this "support" to Armenia's advantage. He could have actually obtained loans for Armenia, for example, to open the border or release all our prisoners. But the only thing he achieved was handing over the "godfathers" to Syrian terrorists in exchange for our four innocent prisoners," the expert noted.
She noted that many people today are talking about how Turkiye and Azerbaijan are giving pre-election gifts to Armenia, but sending two "canisters" of gasoline is a ridiculous gift. "I would be happy if, for example, they gave Pashinyan gifts by releasing all the prisoners or, say, closing the topic of 'Western Azerbaijan.' But no, they are essentially continuing a policy of hostility and humiliation, even towards their beloved 'godfather,' disgracing him with dangerous anti-church campaigns and offering the public new portions of hatred. In fact, as a citizen of the Republic of Armenia, I would like to see a government in the Republic of Armenia that has no external 'godfathers' - neither Russians, nor Turks, nor Europeans, nor from any other country. I would like the leader of the Republic of Armenia to be guided by the state interests of the country, to be exclusively a servant of these interests, to seek allies, partners, supporters, and not poverty, especially empty, one-sided and dangerous poverty. In general, there is no more honorable and motivating work than serving the interests of one's state. But this requires intelligence, will, and tireless perseverance, not a passionate and inexplicable desire. "Unconditionally submit to the will of the opponents," stated Tatevik Hayrapetyan.
