If we are guided by the message of the Declaration of Independence, we will never have peace, now we will have war. Pashinyan

What are the provisions of our declaration? There are three cornerstone provisions, a landmark. one - historical justice, the other - the wishes of the Armenian people and the third - the decisions of the reunification of the Nagorno-Karabakh National Council and the Supreme Council of Armenia. According to "News.am", RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan mentioned this in an interview to Public Radio on February 1.

"For example, we always look from Azerbaijan's point of view, but why don't we look at how our other neighbors perceive it? How do they perceive this thing that we are saying: we are creating a state to restore historical justice? What does it mean to restore historical justice? We say that the Republic of Armenia, in fact, declares independence on the territory of the ASSR and says that we must restore historical justice, or maybe the wording of the declaration is slightly different.

But how does our environment perceive our messages? We constantly say: how does Azerbaijan perceive, how does Turkey perceive, but why don't we ask: how does Georgia perceive? Why don't we ask ourselves the question: why does Georgia have deep defense relations with Azerbaijan and Turkey and not with Armenia?

Could this have anything to do with the messages that we have sent, that we have laid out at the foundation of our state?

Next question. We really need to settle our relations with the declaration today. Now the question is whether our state policy should be directed to it, and whether our state policies should be guided by that message and should be based on the decision of the National Council of Nagorno Karabakh and the Supreme Council of Armenia on the reunification of Karabakh and Armenia. This is a matter of political choice. If so, this means we will never have peace. Moreover, this means that we will now have a war, because I say again, look how well the economy is growing, now we will strengthen our army, and obviously everyone can see that we are spending very serious resources on the transformation of the army.

In other words, we declare, we say that now we are strengthening the army and let's implement the provisions of our declaration. If we say this, what does this mean? This means that our neighbors will form an alliance to destroy us because we have declared that at least we have a theme with them.
