ArmInfo. The main crisis that our nation is experiencing today is a moral and psychological crisis. A similar opinion was expressed to ArmInfo by head of the International Center for Human Development Tevan Poghosyan.
"I am convinced that it is, of course, possible to stop all this. For what purpose each of us must decide on our own intentions, actions and what kind of Armenia we want to see in the future. And, of course, we should always remember that the superpowers in all their actions always proceed from their own interests, not the interests of the Armenian people," he noted.
In the expert's opinion, the reasons for the refusal of the US and French ambassadors to visit the occupied Shushi at the invitation of Baku should also be sought exclusively in American and French interests, rather than in Armenian ones. Poghosyan is convinced that Western calculations are accurate, while it is the Armenian calculations or rather hopes, that are erroneous and illusory.
In this light, Poghosyan noted that observing and trying to analyze the latest information flows related to these events, one gets the impression that Armenia already habitually relies on anyone but itself. In this light, he pointed out, in fact, the lack of the intentions and actions of the Armenian government and society in the public discourse,.
The expert explains this state of affairs by the lack of statehood, as a result of the lack of politicization of the Armenian nation. Meanwhile, according to his forecasts, it will be possible to change the way of thinking of Armenians only by turning Armenia into a politicized nation. First of all, in terms of laying hopes for ensuring one's own security, not on others, but on oneself.
"Who, in the end, will fight for Artsakh if the current leadership of Armenia does not? Certainly not the United States. In this light, I absolutely do not see any difference between the new or the old US co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group. We talk about everything, about anything, but not about our own benefit, about our interests, not personal, but public ones. And our only resource for ensuring these interests is national unity, which was broken into such small pieces that now it is not clear whether it can be put back together again," Pogosyan summed up.
