Armenian blogger: Only fraud, robbery reigned in Karabakh during 30 years

Armenian blogger Natalie Aleksanyan has written that the international community named Armenia an occupier several times.

“Even the UN adopted four resolutions on this issue, while the world has not recognised Karabakh as an independent country. In other words, the world has always viewed Karabakh as part of Azerbaijan,” Caliber.Az reports citing Aleksanyan’s message on Facebook.

“I have many friends who sympathise with the opposition, and they remember that I also supported the opposition. However, my political views have changed, my friends are surprised, and they have a right to be surprised. I will explain what happened. My general worldview, rather than my political views, has changed. I was shocked after the loss of Karabakh, and afterward, I decided not to mourn, but to look at the situation and try to understand what was happening. My dear, I am despondent,” she wrote.

“I asked myself. Why did the US, France, Canada and other superpower countries, being absolute supporters of Armenia, support Azerbaijan in the Karabakh issue? Not assisting Armenia means supporting Azerbaijan, albeit silently - I think no one will argue this point of view. Azerbaijan simply could not buy everyone through oil, especially the US. The US itself is a world oil producer and competes with Azerbaijan in this issue. In this case, how can we understand what happened?” Aleksanyan wrote.

“I opened international legislation and began to study, simultaneously analysing what had happened in and around Armenia over the past few decades. Sorry, but I will tell the truth. It turned out that the international community named Armenia an occupier several times, even the UN adopted four resolutions on this issue, and the world never recognised Karabakh as an independent country. In other words, the world has always considered Karabakh as a part of Azerbaijan, and that is why the world did not interfere in the wars of 2020 and 2023, considering it an internal problem of Azerbaijan,” the blogger wrote.

Aleksanyan wrote that thus, the world and the Armenians had different opinions. I will mention the most important point of my analysis. My words will be painful, but if we want to truly understand what is happening to us and the reason for our current desperate situation, we must be honest with each other.

“We Armenians believe that we never make mistakes. We consider any issue that is resolved against our wishes as a conspiracy against us. The US, Europe, Russia, all other countries in our imagination constantly betray us, abandon us, leave us alone with the enemy. We are simply confident that we are absolutely right, all others are either traitors or bribed. We Armenians are not God-fearing. We consider ourselves equal to God. Only God and the Armenians never make mistakes. I am sure that even if any word of God contradicts our opinion, we will consider this word to be incorrect. Even God has no right to teach us anything, and our religious leaders are an obvious example. When the clergy of all other nations preach the words of Christ: love your neighbour, love your enemy, forgive, etc., our confessors take up arms and call for war. Maybe you will say that they are patriots. Then they should be military personnel, rather than confessors, because their behavior directly contradicts the commandments of God and we consider this normal. If an Armenian decides anything, then God must obey and support him by his deeds,” the blogger said.

“This is our problem. It seems to us that we created the world and everyone should obey our desires. We are always right, in any issue, while all others are wrong. Everyone makes mistakes, including us, but we categorically refuse not only to correct our mistakes but even to notice them. Do you know why this is so? If by chance it turns out that we are wrong on some issue, then Azerbaijan will be right on the same issue. You know what I mean, do not you? Our worldview will never accept this fact, because even if God is wrong, then how can an Azerbaijani be right?” the blogger said.

The blogger wrote that a country cannot be absolutely correct and at the same time lose in all issues. The main reason for our painful concessions and losses is that we do not consider our mistakes to be mistakes. All other countries admit their mistakes, correct them and move on, but we do not notice our mistakes, and the mistakes constantly accumulate. Mistake after mistake is ignored, and a moment comes when the politics and daily life of an entire country are built on mistakes.

“For this reason, no analyst in Armenia is able to correctly predict the realities of tomorrow. Ana analyst’s opinion is based on accumulated mistakes, and it is impossible to get correct answers based on mistakes. For this reason I have not heard a single specialist who, at least a year ago, would have predicted the catastrophe that befell the Karabakh people and would have warned us. Just believe me, if we had been prepared in advance, we would have received our compatriots much better and there would not have been the problems that we face today. If the Armenian leadership had known what would happen, they would have taken preliminary steps instead of making decisions after the Karabakh Armenians began to leave. The government's mistakes are also typical for our people, because the government consists of us, Armenians, who never make mistakes,” Aleksanyan wrote.

“While understanding what was happening and being horrified, I decided to be honest with my people and speak openly. I don't want us to keep making mistakes. I would like us to analyse, understand our mistakes and correct them. I want Armenia to strengthen its statehood in the right direction and not suffer from the mistakes of the past, but correct them and use them for its own benefit. For this reason, I openly point out our mistakes, while the forces leading to the destruction of the country consider my step pro-Azerbaijani one. It makes no sense to say that these notorious forces were the authors of our current reality. The idea of always being right is ingrained in our brains thanks to their false patriotic sermons. If we start asking the right questions, it will become clear that during 30 years only two things have happened in Armenia and Karabakh - fraud and robbery. I'm sure you understand well what I'm talking about. Every honest Armenian, either from Armenia or Karabakh, will confirm this. The Karabakh people know well the conditions in which they lived. They also know well that they were deceived and robbed,” she wrote.

“When you point out the past mistakes, the forces of the past actively attack and try to discredit everyone, without taking into account the person and his past life. The Karabakh gang still believes that it is absolutely right and is above God. However, I ask the question, are they right? Was their continuous robbery and deception during 30 years a right step? Was it right that they preached absolute hatred against their neighbours? By the way, keep in mind that even now the word “Turk” is constantly heard in their propaganda. Even today they inspire hatred and fear against the Turks. These are the same forces that have oppressed us for 30 years. My dear, let's think about this. Maybe I am wrong, but this is the key to our Armenia’s success. In any case, we have never corrected our mistakes, so we can try once. If it doesn't work out, we can always go back to our good old absolute truth, but I'm sure it will work out. All you have to do is to try,” the blogger wrote.
