I frequently come across comments online such as “You won’t accomplish anything with small groups,” “We need unity,” “Armenians unite!” and other similar empty, grandiose calls. Frankly, I have never taken them seriously. Just as I have never taken expressions like “take action” or “all you do is talk” seriously, because, as always, the vast majority of those who say and write such things have not lifted a finger in the past 35 years. These statements may sound like patriotic appeals, but in reality, there is absolutely no substance behind them, because these people have no idea how unity actually comes about. It seems they make such statements simply to feel better about themselves. They believe that this so-called “unity” will somehow materialize out of thin air, without any preparatory work. It is like a farmer wanting to grow sweet fruit and harvest a crop without first sowing seeds and cultivating the soil. No one is going to descend from the heavens with a magic wand and bring about some kind of nationwide unity. National unity emerges at the right historical moment through groups, or a group, born from within the people, which have spent years laying the groundwork for it.
It has been almost five years since I founded Hosank as an independent Armenian nationalist political movement, fully opposed to this anti-Armenian neo-Bolshevik system and its hostile agenda. Throughout these years, by writing posts, creating images and flags, giving interviews, holding discussions, having uniforms made, producing videos, launching a website and social media pages, writig our manifesto and political program, producing a music album, organizing numerous gatherings and meetings, and building a small but ideologically committed core of young people, we have put together our “résumé”—our portfolio. We have done this so that people not only know who we are and what we stand for, but also so that we can demonstrate to the entire Armenian nation and the world that Armenian nationalism is gaining new momentum in the 21st century.
What we have accomplished is certainly no heroic feat, but it is by no means a meaningless waste of time either. We understand that during these relatively stable and peaceful times, when the overwhelming majority of our people are under a kind of hypnosis, we will never be able to bring about nationwide unity. Nor are we striving to do so, because it is simply unrealistic at this moment. Under these circumstances, unity means trying to bring together a significant portion of the small, conscious tiny minority of our nation, so that it can become the nucleus of a future nationwide movement when a major crisis erupts in our country and the situation changes dramatically.
We understand that, at this point, 100 like-minded young people united around a political movement, wearing the same uniforms and carrying the same flags, create a far more powerful image and can represent national unity much more effectively than an impulsive crowd of 10,000 people flooding the streets, consumed by hatred and false hopes, in support of some treacherous oligarch. We are fully aware that this organized, energetic, ideologically committed, and dedicated movement of 100 people represents a force a thousand times more powerful in itself than that crowd of 10,000 people who lack ideology, organization and who have been bought off. And have no doubt that the traitors to our nation and our foreign enemies will fear such a small but dedicated group far more than a crowd gathered by the thousands, whose members are here today but will disperse and return to their homes tomorrow.
Nevertheless, I want to make one thing clear: I have no ego problem, nor have I proclaimed myself the leader of the nation. I am simply the founder and leader of a small, currently “marginal” political movement, trying, within the limits of my capabilities, to establish the ideological foundations for a future nationwide movement. Therefore, if for whatever reason people do not trust or sympathize with us, or with me personally, and do not wish to join our ranks, then let them establish their own independent nationalist movement—one that opposes this entire system, relies on its own strength, and remains devoted to its own ideas and mission. In short, let them build their own résumé through consistent work, because without that, we cannot cooperate with one another. They must lay all their cards on the table and demonstrate what they are made of, just as we do, so that everything is fair.
If there were ten groups like ours today, we would already have a big network of nationalists. Unfortunately, our compatriots fail to understand these things because, much like communists, they consider quantity more important than quality. Our compatriots simply fail to understand that quality must take precedence over quantity, because quantity must stem from quality and not the other way around. Let us understand this clearly: the time for quantity will come, but the purpose of our work today must be to build that quality. If we genuinely want to see real unity, this is the only way forward.
I will conclude by repeating this very important thought: before the storm, the soil must be cultivated, because a garden cannot come into existence without seeds being sown and nurtured at the right time.
One Nation, One State, One Will
Hail Armenia and Victory!
