Interesting, Have These People Landed from the Moon? Tunyan Comments on Gas Imports from Azerbaijan

Only $1.5 million worth of gasoline has been imported from Azerbaijan to Armenia, and some people have raised a commotion, saying, 'What are you doing? You're filling the budget of an enemy country, strengthening the enemy's army, and so on.' It's interesting if these people have landed from the moon and don't know that, according to their own characterization, we have been importing from Turkey, which they define as no less of an enemy country, for about 30 years, in volumes that are a hundred times greater.

This was stated by My Step Alliance MP Babken Tunyan. 'In the last 20 years, from 2006 to this October, we have imported more than $4.3 billion worth of goods of Turkish origin into Armenia including clothing, clothing accessories, equipment, spare parts, and construction materials... And it’s very interesting that the members of the Dashnaktsutyun party, who were part of the government, the president of 'the war,' former and current officials and figures who are national patriots and anti-Turkish, did they not know about this, or did they consider Turkey a friendly country? They say, 'We won't buy Azerbaijani gasoline, and we won't eat bread made from wheat that came through Azerbaijan...' You are free to make your choices about what to purchase or not. However, before making emotional speeches, it would be wise for you and your families to examine the origin of your clothing to see if it is Turkish or made from Turkish fabric, lest it creates a 'short circuit' with your thesis. Meanwhile, Armenia will continue the process of normalizing relations with neighboring countries, including developing economic ties,' he wrote.
