For the first time in our recent history we are gaining lost territories. For this particular reason, western countries want us to surrender these territories. Some powers do not want a balance of power in the region, they want a weak Armenia so they can control the region and get resources. They want a strong Azerbaidjan, like they wanted a strong Turkey in 1923. Every Armenian knows what resulted from this western diplomatic desire, Armenia lost its western provinces, lost Cilicia and was invaded near Erevan. It could have lost the chance to have a country. A first loss is followed by other losses, until the complete annihilation of the subject. Armenia should learn from its history. “One thing is sure – if Armenia wants peace and integration in this region, we have to be prepared to surrender something.”
