"It Has Already Started. Everyone is Writing That I Predicted, Warned, and Raised the Alarm a Year Ago on This Day" - Margarita Eshayan

Former MP Margarita Eshayan writes: "It has already started... Everyone is writing that a year ago on this day, I predicted, warned, and raised the alarm, a year ago on this day, we were still at peace. It has started, we are once again lamenting that a year ago on this day, Artsakh was ours, Shushi and Hadrut were ours...

They are writing/writing, remembering-reminding, grieving-cursing, crying-going mad... Everyone... From here and there... And... What conclusion... What steps... What specific actions to rectify and ease the situation. Where did 'Without Nikol, Armenia', 'Let's hand the traitor to the land', 'Traitor-traitor' slogans go... Where are the fiery speakers from the street stages... Where are those who took to the streets for hours, where is our togetherness, our Armenianness, our rebellion... Where is our army, where are the generals... Where are those who safeguard the country, the veterans? Where are the singers of 'Whether with fire or sword, we will reach sooner or later'... Where are we all together and separately... Did we reach, did we descend, are we where we are supposed to be... Was this what we wanted... We, an entire Armenian nation, thoughtful, educated, imagining the situation, are this powerless, this weak...? Was I unable to overcome such a helpless liar...? Is he really that influential...? And please don’t start with geopolitical, global, drone, phosphorus... Don’t say, I don’t understand these things, I don’t want to understand... I know one truth: those who brought defeat should have been removed immediately, a year ago, disgracefully and irreversibly, without trial or judgment... Did we do it...? Well then, let's get up and go to Yerablur to mourn... With courage... Yes, today we will go to Yerablur, light candles on the way to Yerablur, accompanied by the clergy, with fear of God we will go, we will pray, we will cry, we will grieve, we will delve into ourselves, we will write statuses... We will freeze... And... Then... After that, we will scatter to our homes and hang off the screens of our computers... What have we become, what a terrible mutation this is... Armenians... The war is still not over, perhaps tomorrow morning we will wake up to the news of a new war... And please tell me, where is our most capable army in the region... Is it growing stronger...?"
