"Such Things Cannot Bring Political Dividends": Alen Simonyan Publishes a Map

In a post on his Telegram page, the President of the National Assembly, Alen Simonyan, wrote: "They go to the border villages and convince the residents that someone, including me, has said or is saying that, for example, the village of Voskepar is not Armenian, or that any part of Tavush is not Armenian and must be surrendered. Some journalists also allow themselves to say that a village is being handed over in Tavush. No territory of the Republic of Armenia, no settlement, no village, not even a meter can be surrendered, nor is there any discussion about this!

Going to the bordering villages and stirring up emotions by distorting reality, playing with people’s feelings is a blatant example of the lowest qualities. Such things cannot bring political dividends to anyone. The Republic of Armenia has a clear map. We gained independence based on that map, and it is not subject to discussion."
