V. Soghomonyan: Allegation and distortion of history
2rd.am turned to the Head of the office of the RA Second President to comment on some viewpoints of Levon Ter-Petrosyan on Artsakh issue voiced at Kentron TV. 2rd.am –Mr Soghomonyan, Armenia’s First President Levon Ter-Petrosyan expressed a number of thoughts on Artsakh issue at Kentron TV, among them noting that so called “Meghri option” was discussed in Key West. How will you comment on it? V. Soghomonyan –Ter-Petrosyan, in essence, said nothing new. For one part, he reiterated his well known article, again introducing himself as a supporter of defeatism, for other part, he reiterated old lies and forgeries, presenting them as a historical reality. Among them is the so called “Meghri option”. I reiterate that the issue of exchange of Meghri or the RA any other territory wasn’t discussed in Key West, or somewhere else, in no phase of negotiations. It is an allegation and distortion of history. As for Ter-Petrosyan’s formulation that “we will not live well, unless we solve that issue”, it doesn’t resist any criticism. I would like to remind that in 2000-2008 Armenia’s economy registered double digit economic growth.
