No miracle happened at the U.N. Security Council session.
Outwardly good speeches were merely delivered. However, no resolution was
adopted. Coordinator of the Hayakve initiative Avetik Chalabyan made a Facebook
post on this, summarizing the outcomes of the U.N. Security Council emergency
special session.
“The reason why no resolution was adopted was that from
the very moment when the current RA authorities verbally recognized Artsakh as
part of Azerbaijan and refused to protect the right of the people of Artsakh to
self-determination, the rest of the world breathed a sigh of relief and began
to consider that the Artsakh issue constitutes Azerbaijan’s domestic issue,
that Lachin corridor is Azerbaijan’s territory, that the crisis in Artsakh is
merely a humanitarian issue, which can be settled by delivering a
negligible amount of goods to Artsakh from Azerbaijan. By and large, this was
the main message of the Security Council’s session and they made it clear to
Armenia that no one is going to solve our basic problems for us,” he wrote.
Chalabyan noted that the U.N. Security Council session had
built up over-high expectations within our society.
“This was Nikol Pashinyan and his ruinous regime’s
another apparent failure, another disaster caused by their fake
“peace” agenda. In fact, our compatriots not only from Artsakh, but
also from the border regions of Syunik, Gegharkunik, Vayots Dzor and Ararat
provinces are facing the dire consequences of these actions every day. Instead
of tightening up the country’s security, taking steps to help us claw our way
back from the post-war reality, to appropriately respond to Azerbaijan’s
provocations, this regime squanders $6 million dollars on some Snoop Dogg’s
concert, increases the police force, lavishes its loyal marionettes with bonus payments,
organizes festivals in every corner of the country. And they do this all to
dumb us down so that they can cede Artsakh without causing any turmoil,”
Chalabyan wrote.
