"In case a movement kicks in any country all unsuccessful people gather
like flies gather smelling honey. I would like to see successful
people in the Karabakh Committee, who already enjoy the love and
respect of the public, like Levon Ter-Petrosyan, Babken Ararktsyan,
David Vardanyan and others. I mean to say that the committee needed
people with a will to go ahead", Vazgen Manoukyan, coordinator of
the committee reminded today.
It was honorable to be a member to the Karabakh Committee 19 years ago,
but it was at the same time hazardous as the members could spend all
their lives in jails without any knowledge that one day will come to
power. No matter how animated the committee members were, they had
to put aside their emotions and head the public.
"We formed secret groups, brought weapons from various places and
we did our best to prevent further confrontation. Only later on
the Karabakh movement enriched in ideology- democracy, freedom. The
Karabakh issue was transferred to the international level," Vazgen
Manoukyan states.
Mr. Manoukyan could not recall a more brilliant example of assembling
over the past 100 - 200 years.
"I feel pity and blame both myself and the Karabakh Committee that
we were unable to make use of public's liveliness."
In Mr. Manoukyan's opinion, the current situation is resulted by
faults and crimes. Summing up the duration of the Karabakh movement,
the victory of the war and the policy of the acting authorities,
Vazgen Manoukyan said, "The acting authorities sell our victory step
by step". He excludes the settlement of the Karabakh conflict in
close future.
"Armenia must develop at a rapid speed. We must seek adherents
world-wide and conduct active policy instead of usurping the power. In
case we overcome these hard times, Armenia will prosper", he said.
