  1. Stay strong Armenia. Better to fight an enemy outside of your borders than inside it. Just look at what’s going on in France right now. Thank god we don’t see that in the streets of Yerevan. Let’s keep Armenia’s borders closed

    1. Well spoken, Greg. That matter of keeping the enemy outside the country is important. The same goes for any negotiations that involve Armenia’s Artsakh Stronghold. Any Azerbaijanis who return to the surrounding areas should be required to pass through checkpoints, if they ever cross into Armenian populated areas.

    2. Exactly. Armenians should learn from Europe as an example of how not to do things. As long as the enemy is outside of Armenia’s borders it is much easier to define and defeat them as opposed to one that is inside. I truly hope that Armenia never ends up having the same domestic security concerns that France has… or any other Western European nation for that matter.
