Six years ago today, a new war against Artsakh began, but at the time I did not know that it would become the treacherous 44-day war. Deep down, I felt that something was wrong, but I had already been living in Armenia for four years, and I felt that the time had come to fulfill my duty to the Homeland. I packed my things, put my work aside, and went to the military commissariat, ready to volunteer for the war. There are still debates over whether the war could have been avoided or not. There is only one correct answer to this question: whether the war was avoidable or unavoidable should make no difference to us; we must accept it as part of our reality. We must always be prepared for battle, and the political elite must always be prepared to stand behind the army and to politically consolidate the victories achieved on the battlefield.

We cannot consider this day a day of mourning, regardless of the treacherous way in which the war ended on November 9, which is the true day of mourning. Today is not a day for mourning, because we should not regard enemy attacks on our land as a tragedy, especially when we have armed forces. In reality, it is a day of struggle—a struggle that we could have ended in victory, by fully and permanently uniting Artsakh with Armenia, if, of course, we had a national state and a national leader, rather than clowns and sellout traitors.

However, this struggle did not begin in 2020 in the 21st century; it began with the Four-Day War of 2016, when I felt the earth tremble beneath me, and a few months later I moved to Armenia. On September 27, 2020, the earth trembled beneath my feet once again, and I knew then that the moment had come—that this was exactly why I had come to Armenia. In reality, I still feel the tremors of the earth to this day, and I know that the land will give us one more historic opportunity to recover and rise to our feet. Until that day comes, let us continue to keep alive the immortal memory of our fallen brave men and martyred heroes, and continue their struggle.

One Nation, One State, One Will
