The speech of RA President Serzh Sargsyan at the Konrad Adenauer
Foundation was followed by questions. A certain Gajibeyli, who claimed
to be from Aghdam, addressed the President, "Since 1992 my village
has been occupied by Armenian-Russian units. It is already for 18
years that I have been unable to return to my motherland. How long
will you occupy my motherland?" he asked.
"Until you, Mr. Gajibeyli, stop making four serious mistakes in one
sentence," the Armenian President replied. "First, it was Azerbaijan
that attacked Nagorno-Karabakh from Aghdam in 1992 and occupied
its major part. Besides, there was not a single Russian soldier in
the mentioned region and you should not explain your defeat by any
other reasons. Thirdly, I have no relation to the forces deployed in
that region to be able to help you. That region is controlled by the
armed forces of Nagorno-Karabakh and this situation was imposed upon
them - Karabakh with a population of 150,000 could not have started
hostilities against Azerbaijan, with its population of several
millions. That was an imposed war, which made the Karabakh people
to take up arms and save their independence at the expense of their
children's lives," Serzh Sargsyan said.
