Armenians haven’t had a competent leader since Catholicos Khrimian Hayrik
Khrimian Hayrik is a highly revered clergyman. But, he is also a great leader who has given wonderful political advice to the Armenian nation.

Reading those words brought tears to my eyes as our greatest enemy has always been from within….foreign money has no place in our politics because it breeds greed and our leaders are obliged to serve their foreign masters from whose hand they have taken. Why does the US embassy in Armenia have 3000 employees? Where were the Americans when the Azeris and. Turks attacked our people and brought war on us? What did the west ever do except for buy our politicians to advance their own agendas? The west is in bed with the Turks no matter what they say….they see Russia as an adversary and we are caught between a rock and a hard place trying to balance our subservience between two masters the Russians and the anglosaxons. Neither has our best interests in mind ……while the Russians used to guarantee our statehood today it seems that even that guarantee is no longer there! If we don’t find our own two feet to stand on tomorrow we won’t have a state to call our own! Time to purge our government of leaders who serve foreign masters! Time to do away with leaders who have made it their goal to mislead our people and bring in new leaders who will lead us to salvation through strength! We need to have manufacturing as our number one industry…our military can be rebuilt with modern home grown weapons…we have many smart and capable people we can design our own fighter jets, artillery, weapons that the world has yet to see! A country at war cannot survive off of the tourism and service economy! This war is far from over all the resources of our state and government need to be directed towards building up our military because only they can be a guarantor of our future! Manufacturing would create jobs and will help People find their purpose to provide for their own families. Things gotta change! Too many rely on money sent to them from abroad to survive breeding not work ethic but the freeloader mentality! Enough looking for a handout to survive! Seems our politicians and the people have the same mentality and that needs to change!
“Russia, which seemed to be a great friend of our people, other than sympathy, sees and hears nothing but its own interests”.
Well there we have it. For the past few years, after I saw and understood everything to see and understand about Russia’s “alliance” from 2016, I have opposed all the English-speaking, Living-in-prosperity-in-America Soviet remnants that show up here and start blabbering with drivel like “After many centuries Russia resurrected Armenia… blah blah blah” and “God bless Mother Russia (and Armenia) and protect them from enemies, foreign and domestic… blah blah blah”.
News flash: YOU are the domestic enemy. You know why? Because you are the gate-keepers of everything blindly obedient to your precious “Mother Russia”. This means that in your vision, Armenia may never progress and be an independent nation.
And stop bad-mouthing Pashinyan as some kind of “Sorosakan” and “Globalist”: you have no right, because YOU produced him and his ilk. And while that is true that he is a traitor, he is actually the PERFECT example of post-Soviet remainders and indoctrination and he is YOUR PEOPLE. We in the diaspora have nothing to do with all four clowns who infiltrated as “leaders” in Armenia. Our idea of a leader of Armenia is the subject of this article here, Khrimian, from the same visionaries as Njdeh, Antranig and their brethren. To us in the diaspora, the Petrosian-Pashinyan vs Kocharyan-Sargsyan clown show is from the same meaningless Soviet circus.
Khrimian Hyrik is 100% correct. Unity is the answer. We are a race of many chiefs with bruised egos. We are a race easily divided and conquered. Until we get it through out small heads that unity, good or bad, is the ONLY REAL OPTION we will continue to be fodder under someone else’s rule. All funds should be spent on weapons. Diaspora military units to serve and train is a must. Using the 10 million strong diaspora resources is a must. Armenia proper doesn’t want that. That’s crazy. They just want the money and would rather trust Russians instead. A recipe for disaster.
