    AT LEAST WE'LL GET TO SASUN AND ENTER VAN

    The deputy speaker of Parliament Hrair Karapetyan, member of the
    ARF Dashnaktsutyun, stated October 31 that the Azerbaijani army is
    not stronger than our army, our army is effective, and if Azerbaijan
    launches a war, it should be mindful that this time Armenia may advance
    so as to set up land communication with Russia. No doubt, Hrair
    Karapetyan means that our force may reach the Azerbaijani-Russian
    border and take it under control. Besides, Hrair Karapetyan also
    said that when facing the danger of war our society should not fly
    into a panic and take the defensive side but know that we are able
    to solve greater problems, including not only our military but also
    economic security, getting an outlet to the sea to solve the problem
    of lifting the blockade, getting new territories.

    Hrair Karapetyan said "we gave a chance to Turkey and Azerbaijan
    with the football diplomacy, which was not used, however." In answer
    to Hrair Karapetyan's statements that we will be able to achieve a
    major goal in the form of having border with Russia and an outlet to
    the sea, the reporters asked what in that case we are waiting for,
    and why we do not start solving our problems, since they will not
    get solved unless someone declares a war on us.

    "No, I am not joking. Let us remember now, who would think before the
    liberation war in Artsakh that Artsakh and the adjacent territories
    would be Armenian? Only the members of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun, their
    supporters or people with national mindset. And who can guarantee
    that in five or ten years what I said plus the rest of Armenia will
    not come true," Hrair Karapetyan says. The reporters noted that this
    is why they are saying that maybe it is time we launched the war and
    solved problems.

    "No, you see, we did not launch the war in Artsakh. We defended
    ourselves, we launched a national liberation movement. Azerbaijan
    attacked," Hrair Karapetyan says. "Azerbaijan attacked. We cannot
    be an aggressor because this situation favors us. If it is set down
    internationally, if this situation is set down, it fully favors us
    in terms of the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh issue. But we
    must also respond to those militaristic statements for our people to
    realize that we are able to advance if the rival tries to exterminate
    Armenians in Armenia. And by saying Armenia I mean Karabakh. And the
    experience of Georgia should also be taken into account, today the
    international situation is such that the aggressor loses," said the
    member of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun.
