ArmInfo. The current government, which divided the nation, looking for enemies among its own nation, surrendered Artsakh, humiliated the national dignity of the people, today blames the opposition for all mortal sins. Secretary of the opposition faction <Armenia> Artsvik Minasyan stated this on December 20 from the rostrum of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia.
He added that the faction denies the cheap accusations of the government representatives against the opposition, which is already becoming a tragedy. It is impossible to imagine such a government, which, not understanding the demands of the opposition, immediately accuses it of not recognizing Artsakh during its 30-year rule, Minasyan continued. <30 years Artsakh was actually independent, its population grew, and the Armenians of the whole world turned the issue of Artsakh into the number one problem. During your reign, you failed all this, ruined Artsakh, and now who do you blame for all this, and for what? The army is weakened, the security environment is destroyed," Minasyan said, adding that the opposition supports the activities of the Russian peacekeeping forces, which today are the only body that more or less ensures the security of Artsakh. "But we also issued an appeal in which we called on the Russian authorities to take all necessary actions to resolve the current situation. Why are you silent about this? Or are you pleased to raise anti-Russian hysteria>, the oppositionist asked.
In turn, Secretary of the RA Security Council Armen Grigoryan noted that the most important component of the unity of the nation is the holding of free and fair elections, on the basis of which the society elects the government. The falsification of elections, the theft of votes are one of the factors that discredit the nation. From this point of view, the Secretary of the Security Council continued, one can assess what political force ensured the unity of the nation. <The recent elections to the National Assembly, which were held twice and which were recognized as free and fair by the international community, are a clear confirmation of this. Do not try to cheapen the labor of the people who pay taxes with their labor, the funds from which are directed to solving the most important problems, including the security problems of both Armenia and Artsakh>, Armen Grigoryan said, addressing the opposition. He added that finances are one of the most important efforts of the Armenian people investing in the security of Artsakh. "Our government is making daily efforts aimed at ensuring the rights and security of the people of Artsakh," the Secretary of the Security Council of Armenia stressed, adding that most of the work of the body involved in foreign policy activities is related to Artsakh. "Over the past 2 months, I alone made 14 visits, on the agenda of which the most significant place was given to the problems of Nagorno-Karabakh," Armen Grigoryan said.
