‘How can I stay in Armenia, how can I not leave?’: A Radio Listener on the Daily Question on Radio Aurora

Radio Aurora's live broadcast today discusses the theme: 'In the past, many wanted to leave the country and settle abroad, but does the number of those who wish to do so continue to grow?' In the context of today's topic, listener Aghasi Arakelyan sent us the following poem:

'Inspired by the motifs of Hamo Sahyan.
How can I stay in Armenia, how can I not leave?
How can there be no other place with such a patched-up Mother Law?
How can there be no other place with this many generals in the army,
who steal from the soldiers' bread?
How can there be no other place like Germany, which is so rampant with corruption?
How can there be no other place where the state budget is so openly plundered?
How can there be no other place where a new political party is created every month?
How can there be no other place where our Armenian language is so barbarously distorted?
How can there be no other place with a people who have been continuously deceived and humiliated for centuries?
How can there be no other place where electoral bribes are distributed like excavated treasures?
How can there be no other place that plunders the earth’s subsoil so savagely?
For years, Lake Sevan weeps, and there is no price for the flowing waters beneath our noses.
How can there be no other place where a businessman has so many shareholders in his business?
How can there be no other place where a city holds so much garbage?
How can there be no other country with such a foul Mother City?
How can there be no other country where transport has such an owner?
How can there be no other place where rivers flow for the oligarachs,
and no other place where state officials speak such false things…'
