“The developments during April war were like a planned war. All the measures of solving this issue have already been exhausted and at present they resort to that measure,” thinks Zhirayr Sefilyan, member of “New Armenia” public salvation front. He advised not blaming the army for this, “Serzh Sargsyan is to blame. The lost posts can be easily returned, but the hands of our army are tied.” Zhirayr Sefilyan states that the ruling regime in Armenia is mainly concerned about the preservation of the power, and nothing has hindered them in the implementation of it, “One of those measures was selling our country part by part. All we have witnesses during these years how those people made use of the external factor and sold our country part by part and were able to maintain their power.” The freedom fighter declares bearing full responsibility that now the turn to sell Artsakh has come, “For prolonging his power Serzh Sargsyan manipulates the solution to Artsakh issue, getting promises in return, large amounts of money are also involved in all this.” According to Sefilyan, for many years the authorities tried to set the people the way so that the majority agrees to cede the liberated territories, “This regime failed in setting our people in that way.” While touching upon the return of Samvel Babayan and the processes following it, Zhirayr Sefilyan singled out one odd fact. “It is strange that a personality like Samvel Babayan, who was high ranking military official, knew many secrets, was absent from his homeland for many years. The society must want to know which the reasons were for which the commander of the winning army was abroad for so long.” Zhirayr Sefilyan spoke about the process of establishing a committee for not allowing return of territories to Azerbaijan. Figures rejecting Madrid principles will be included in it. “This committee will include members not only from Yerevan, but also Artsakh and we should also turn to the figures living abroad.” It is known that Samvel Babayan spoke about the possibility of supporting some political force in the future. Can Zhirayr Sefilyan see such a possibility with them, maybe in the expected committee? “Why not? Why not? I said that I won’t announce names, there will be meetings, and our people will be operatively informed,” he said. Watch the video for details!
