Rhode Island Legislature Supports Freedom of Artsakh
State House Calls on U.S. Government to Recognize NKR Independence
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (A.W.)—The Rhode Island House passed a resolution on May 17 calling on the U.S. president and Congress to recognize the independence of the Nagorno Karabagh Republic (NKR). The resolution also encouraged the republic’s “continued efforts to develop as a free and independent nation,” and praised Artsakh’s (Karabagh) “constructive involvement with the international community and its efforts to reach




Artzakh…Our Art-Land on the Zakh (Left)
Let us breathe deeper a little-bit…
Exhale our pains
On the rageful waves of the Atlantic
To turn blue clouds…
Travelling further east and be as soft rain
Reaching where the Bleeding Land
Are still washing its blood…
To clear the mothers’ pain
And settle their souls
Who lost their youthful-years…!
On that small rocky-sand…
Which belonged to them
Before people knew one God…!

I am happy of course for this resolution and the fine Rhode Island house urging the US to recognize it as well; however what good is it if the people in Armenia are leaving the country one by one, because the government in there are belligerently filling their pockets with the hard earned monies of the people and are being impossible for being able to rule the country democratically and with fairness, while the best part and the bulk of the people that are extremely patriotic, are left hungry and desolate. What good is it??? The most important aspect is for the people to remain in the country; both countries -Armenia proper and Artsakh -.
What are our leaders in Diaspora are doing about this? Why couldn’t we see to it that a much more patriotic, fair, democratic and people friendly government would take control of the county????
THIS IS MY MAIN CONCERN AND IT SHOULD BE THE WORRY AND THE NUMBER ONE CONCERNTO EVERY ARMENIAN ALIVE!!
Hi Servart …
Can’t they have lessons from other tyrants…
Who lost their dignity…
I think they are still children
Want more toys to play with
A real tragedy …
Who can advice them…
They can no longer see…
What everyone must face…!
As Al-Mir’ri said…
We should send Al-Mirri’s stanzas to them …
May be they would awake…!

Messer Bako Sahakyan of Artsakh however seems pretty much free of corruption and I am thankful to him and his government for it; however some of the population, but thankfully not the majority seem to prefer to migrate to Armenia proper instead of remaining in Artsakh and building their own lands. I hope that instead, more of our people would migrate to Artsakh and make the country flourish.
I agree with you Seervart, although it is important to have a free Artsakh and to end this problem, but the big problem is our corrupt leaders in Armenia, who are leading our country according to their rules. They do whatever they want. The last example is the new elections, which has nothing to do with the voting. I dont think people had chosen them. They did not do anything good to our country and, people know this. They killed and put innocent men to the jails. After all these injustices who can believe that majority would vote to these crooks?
There are good evidence for oil deposits in the Mardakert province because north of the Mardakert province is the Tartar Rayon which is Azeri occupied land and the towns of Mir Bashir and Maragha (town where the Maragha massacre took place) have oil deposits. This is the major reason why the two major Azeri attacks in 2008 and 2010 took place. Oil exploration must begin because the Armenian military needs to have their own oil supply. Armenia and the NKR must build a border fortification system along the border with Azerbaijan similar to a modernized version of the Maginot Line and this must go across the entire border for it to be successful. Maybe the Armenians could get the Chinese to invest.
What solutions do you propose Seervart? go to the leadership in your community and propose a few of them – plant the seed, you never know how great it may grow…..
