You Are Essentially Admitting That You Are Weak and Incapable: Albert Hovhannisyan's Father Makes a Statement
Any government's function is to protect the state and the rights of its citizens. If you can do neither, you must quietly retreat. This was written by Artak Hovhannisyan, the father of Albert Hovhannisyan, who was killed in the Third Artsakh War, on his Facebook page.
"You are essentially admitting that you are weak and incapable, that your enemy is blackmailing you by using your own citizens. It is the same as if someone were to blackmail you and demand your property by taking your family members hostage, and you stand there as if they don’t exist for you. You are obligated to protect both your property and your family, spineless and mindless creature…
P.S. If the country's leader speaks of the soldier protecting him with some plus or minus, and a foolish minister says they have died, and the speaker of the National Assembly thinks the captive does not exist for him, what will the people consider of these rulers of the state?" Hovhannisyan wrote.
