Dear @antontroian@INechepurenko@carlottagall@mattmbigg
A Northwestern journalism professor once said that any self-respecting journalist would be extremely appreciative of being corrected if their information was wrong.
I wrote this article for you:
https://t.co/xgrxWoQhHJ
Armenian Parliament Speaker Alen Simonyan: "Armenians should build relations with Azerbaijanis, Armenian society should move away from a ‘planet where only Armenians live."
"When something about your neighbor is bothering you - be sure that the same issue is bothering them too. When you say that so many of my people have been killed, they also have lost many. There are mothers, too; they love their children the same way, whether the mother is Azerbaijani, Georgian, Armenian, or Russian.
We need to move away from this “planet of Armenians.” There is a planet where only Armenians live. And I believe we are a wise people, and we can understand that.
And the French and the English, they fought for 100 years. They called each other “frog-eaters” and “pigs.” They hated each other. They are now allies, they build the economy together, and they jointly set the rules.
And what are we supposed to do? What is the choice? And doesn’t a person living in Azerbaijan see the Armenian flag? Doesn’t it bother him? Didn’t we kill anyone there? Was the war all one-sided?
And why can they, but we can’t?
#Armenians and #Azerbaijanis, We must live together, we must trade, and we must talk. We have a lot in common in everyday life and in traditions."
Alen Simonyan said in an interview with Radio Van
🚨 REMINDER!
Azerbaijani armed forces currently occupy at least 241 sq km of Armenia’s internationally recognized territory. 🇦🇲
If the Azerbaijani government truly wanted peace, it would withdraw from occupied Armenian land. The current Pashinyan government says nothing.
@AzeriTimes@greekcitytimes@dbequette False. The Azeri govt put their citizens in tar paper shacks right in the path of the airport. The Armenians were trying to gain the airport to lift the blockade.
Khojaly was never a village. It was a makeshift housing project hastily put together deliberately in the way of harm.
@HikmetHajiyev Your "restoration" includes islamicizing the cathedral, with no spire, no cross, no icons, no Armenian writing, and no mention of the fact that it is ARMENIAN.
@IhabHassane 3 reasons why this is the most evil thing imaginable:
1. Running downhill, sprinting into a launching shove, increases the impact by 1,000.
2. An old woman??!! What kind of flaccid do you have to be??
3. She barely missed that cement corner. That's attempted manslaughter.
