hytga Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 ok. the point here is not whose side of story is more accurate, (Arm or az?) but as to who's doing a better job of feeding the international community it's side. on this perspective i think armenia is loosing some ground. day after day you hear a foreign official taking a one sided view as though armenia is the aggressor, without taking into account what started the war and why. to that list can be added the recent remarks of georgian as well as iranian presidents. the government needs to be more aggressive on this issue, and not sit back and let the voulchers fortify their positions. i don't know of any ways of influencing the government on the issue, any comments and suggestions are welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armen Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 Good and timely topic although it would fit better under Artsakh or in International section. -------------------------------- To give a short answer we are doing OK on the top diplomacy level, however we're losing it on middle level.

skhara Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 War of information? Georgia, I'm not surprised. Iran, yeah a bit surprised. Those who are making anti-Armenian statements are doing it purely for geo-strategic purposes. The fact that Georgia has the ties it has with the west and Turkey, and Armenias close ties to Russia one would almost expect such statements comming from Georgia. In reality, they know exactly what a Turk is. Witness the slaying of an Armenian officer in Hungary with all of Europe watching. The hate-filled propaganda comming from Baku. All the threats. All the Azeris are doing is proving exactly what Armenians say about them. Besides, this one statement says it all: "If there is a single Armenian left in Karabagh this October, Azeris will hang him in Baku's central square." -- Abulfaz Elchbey, President of Azerbaijan, June 1992 And if you hear a statement accusing Armenia, just recite this simple line.
