Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu’s threat to retaliate against anyone in Syria who dares to damage the tomb of Suleyman Shah, grandfather of Osman I, founder of the Ottoman Empire, is the latest manifestation of the Turkish government’s utter hypocrisy. Here is a country that has committed genocide against millions of its Christian subjects (Armenians, […]
Yesterday the government of Karabakh released a statement, which says that “The foreign ministry of the Republic of Nagorno Karabakh recognizes the referendum of the people of the Crimea on March 16 as another implementation of people’s right for self-determination.
On Sunday the Crimea’s population held a referendum and under the attentive control and in the presence of the Russian army 97 per cent of the population of Ukraine’s Crimea voted for joining Russia. Russia recognized the vote immediately. However, the international community did not recognize the vote results as Western powers claim it is annexation from Ukraine with armed force.
The idea that the world is afraid of not Russia’s power but Putin’s powerlessness concerns the existing situation when Russia is losing its geopolitical influence, which can become a factor influencing Putin’s psychological and emotional situation and behavior. When people with such huge power fall into a situation like this or panic, they can do anything. Russia is in a similar situation now, and one can expect anything from Russia.

The Armenian authorities are not speaking anything about the Ukrainian crisis, and the Armenian society does not know whether our government endorses the Ukrainian interim government that is supported by the entire civilized world,” said ANM party board member Ararat Zurabyan to 168 Zham.
The bill was initiated by parliamentarians Samvel Pharmanyan, Arman Sahakyan, Levon Martirosyan, Naira Karapetyan, Arthur Gevorgyan, Edmon Marukyan and Tachat Vardapetyan. This law will allow TV companies to advertise alcohol (more than 20%) and cigarette between 10:00p.m. and 06:00a.m.
“I am not surprised that Tsarukyan is concerned about the health of certain people. And he has been doing a great job for the past ten years because he really wants to have a healthy and strong power. I am pleasantly surprised by the concerns of Levon Zurabyan. So I’d like to rush to console him by saying that within the government our organs work well fully and partly…”
For decades Stepanakert was deprived from having its own mother cathedral of apostolic belief despite its key importance. For filling this gap, Armenia’s religion leader Garegin B blessed the construction of a cathedral to be built with sponsorship of Tashir charity organization.
