Thousands marching toward national suicide. Remember Ukraine? Sad to see this kind of stupidity exists also in Armenians.
why do Armenians want to make the RoA into Ukraine or Iraq?
Dear Gurgen
Nobody wants to make Armenia a Ukraine or Iraq, but it is the current regime that is totally useless! For goodness sake Mr president did not even acknowledge the incident yet! How long is this soviet style pragmatism or Jadragism going to continue?
Dear Shahe,
What would the US president have done if an armed group held a police headquarters and killed police officers in the process? They wouldn’t have lasted 12 hours before special forces went in and massacred them all. I think the “soviet style pragmatism” is showing incredible restraint. An example must be made of these terrorists to prevent its repeat. This type of hostage taking, murder and armed gangs do not belong in a civilized society, regardless of corruption.
