You are the instigators, you are the one unable to manage the war, you are the one making the agreement. Saint Bagrat

If they make fists, set a goal and act for that purpose, they cannot change anything in their lives. According to "News.am", this was announced by Saint Bagrat, leader of the Diocese of Tavush, at the rally organized in Republic Square today, May 9.

"We registered the first victory. They wanted to lay the demarcation stones without any obstacle. We received the news yesterday that the last three stones were not laid, the process was suspended or stopped due to the people's struggle. It will be like that in all destinations.

We came with a demand, we came to demand an answer from the head of the Armenian government, who continuously visited our communities, unfortunately lied, deceived, misled and then threatened and terrorized the people. We came to demand an answer to those threats, to the tears of our little Hogarik. To demand that answer and to give time to stop this one-sided, illegal, unconstitutional, anti-human, anti-moral process.

We were not against either peace or demarcation, but what is happening through this unilateral, knee-jerk concession was unacceptable to us. I want to say very clearly that we should refuse all kinds of manipulations. For us, this process has two sides: legal and moral. There is no precedent in the world for giving in under the threat of force and not giving a guarantee that there will be no war. There is a constant threat that there will be war. We are not the initiators of the war, you are the instigators of the war, you are the one unable to manage the war, and so on, you are the negotiator," declared the Bishop, adding that they want peace with honor.

He noted that in 2021, the ruling power made promises to the people in its plans, where there is no mention of such delimitation. "There was still a promise to cut off hands, but not to leave people in this situation. To come just two months ago and say that if you don't agree, there will be a war, to terrorize the people whose vote you begged and received, and you became a terrorist. This is the moral aspect.

We called this movement of ours a "struggle of expectations", there are no material expectations in this movement, there is only one idea: homeland and honor. The two values that our own government stole from us. Second, we are convinced of the victory of truth. Lies must disappear in our country, truth must triumph through you. Thirdly, we came with the idea of broad social reconciliation, enmity, hatred, chaos... people don't trust each other, division is everywhere. This enmity with lies has destroyed our home. Hate has turned into a general culture, people have lost the image of being human, they appear as profiles, as fake phenomena.

Yes, we have a reconciliation agenda and we must make it a reality. By loving each other, by forgiving each other, we will grow, multiply, and abound," declared Bagrat Srbazan.

He noticed that today they look at the graves of the victims and feel ashamed. "Our calling is to return those boys to their homeland, the dream and homeland that they had in their minds. Our dreams and visions are bigger than the days of our life, we must go after our dreams.

We were told that the people are indifferent, dead, have no homeland, powerless, weak, weak and cowardly. They told you people dear. Here you are, proving what you are. We should also give up pride, the sin of pride," he emphasized.
