How much do these people have to submit, suffer and be denied their rights? The Armenian people have been treated with indifference and without regard for their borders. Enough is enough! All who don’t understand this country’s history should see the movie: “ The Promise”.

You're 100% right, it's been like that for thousands of years. They've been displaced, genocided, and conquered with nobody to help them.

May be Armenia should have honestly tried to find a deal with its neighbor instead of holding on to NK by force for the last +30 years? There was more than enough time to negotiate with AZ. Without mentioning the thousand of displaced AZs in the 1990s. Im not unsympathetic to the Armenian cause but the Armenians dug themselves into this hole and, of course, they blame others. A little bit of self introspection goes a long way 😊

Sad truth

[@clanzu2]

dude that terirtory is recognized as azeris just like alaska belongs to usa by united nations, what are u talking about

[@blackwatertv7018]

Fun fact, the Israeli government actually supports the Azerbaijani regime and opposes recognition of the Armenian genocide.

[@DaronMahdessian]

why is that a fun fact?? israelis never liked christians

[@puraLusa]

And azerbaijan is pro-israel cause it's anti-iran (roughly, positions tend to be more complex). Iran is pro-armenia meanwhile azerbaijan is also majority shia. This is because azerbaijan is pro-turkiye and armenia is historically align with russia (orthodox identity). The caucasus is either bullied by iran, or by russia or by turkiye. If they were smart they would unite as opose to allow division games by the 3 major local powers who have their own selfish interests ofcourse.

Big mistake

[@Thor.Jorgensen]

This is due to the unofficial anti-Iran bloc. Israel doesn't like Iran. Turkey doesn't like Iran. Azerbaijan doesn't like Iran. Armenia has, until recently, been in an alliance with Russia, Syria, and Iran, which has led to a butterfly effect of enemies of friends and friends of enemies throughout the world. In the same breath, Japan also has not recognized the Armenian Genocide for this reason. That does not mean that Japan is Armenia's mortal enemy. It's a distant result of this diplomatic butterfly effect.

In return europe should stop supporting Israel.

Azerbaijan wants some more ground from Armenia and because of their military superiority Armenian government was forced to agree to it and the Armenian people are mad about it

THis aversion to religion, in the sense usually attached to the term, was of the same kind with that of Lucretius: he regarded it with the feelings due not to a mere mental delusion, but to a great moral evil. He looked upon it as the greatest enemy of morality: first, by setting up factitious excellencies - belief in creeds, devotional feelings, and ceremonies, not connected with the good of human kind - and causing these to be accepted as substitutes for genuine virtue: but above all, by radically vitiating the standard of morals; making it consist in doing the will of a being, on whom it lavishes indeed all the phrases of adulation, but whom in sober truth it depicts as eminently hateful js mill

Some Armenian: Armenian army can't defeat the Azerbaijani army backed by Turkey. So what will happen if you don't compromise?
