In the early 1990s, when the "Karabakh" committee came to power on the wave of the popular movement with the slogan of reuniting Artsakh with Armenia ("Unification"), two differing trends were formed in the political field. One of them was inclined to go to the end and make Artsakh a part of Armenia, because it was convinced that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Azerbaijan would pursue an anti-Armenian policy, which was already done in a milder and more restrained way during the USSR.

The representatives of the second trend were of the opposite opinion. Since we cannot change our neighbors, we need to find an understanding with them at the expense of getting along with them by making certain concessions, in particular, leaving Artsakh in some status as part of Azerbaijan.

No wonder both internal trends were born within the "Karabakh" committee, that is, within the government. Therefore, it would have been fair if the wing offering concessions to Azerbaijan, which was a minority, had stopped its participation in the government system (because it came to power with the idea of ​​"Unification") and went to the elections with a new slogan. However, they wanted to both keep the power, at any expense and change the political direction on the basis of which the public had given them a vote of confidence.

Currently, the issue of concessions is relevant again, but in a slightly different context. What is the limit of modern-day Armenia's concessions that can satisfy the appetites of Azerbaijan and Turkey? Now as a result of ethnic cleansing, when no Armenians are left in Artsakh anymore, we see that the appetites of the Turkish-Azerbaijani couple have opened up even more. What is their plan, and would they have been satisfied with this, if Armenia had made radical concessions in time, as it had been proposed by the representatives of the ANM government’s second trend, as described? Naturally, it was not Ter-Petrosyan's love of peace that should have held the Turk back from its centennial dream.

Life has shown that it is impossible to achieve peace with concessions, at least it would not have worked in the case of Turkey and Azerbaijan, since the real goal of the latter was not Artsakh, but Syunik. It is not for nothing that the Azerbaijani press often refers to the historical mission of Atatürk, a figure who, farsightedly, asked Lenin to include in Azerbaijan. It is not for nothing that the Azerbaijani press often refers to the historical mission of Atatürk, a figure who, farsightedly, asked Lenin to include Nakhichevan, Karabakh and Syunik in Azerbaijan, even if was in exchange for ceding all of Azerbaijan to the Soviet Union. And in the 1930s, Turkey swapped territories with Iran in order to have a Turkey-Nakhichevan border, so that later, 100 years later, it would take steps in the direction of Great Turan.

Ataturk managed to solve the issue of Nakhichevan, which was completely depopulated from Armenians at the end of the 80s of the previous century. After three and a half decades, Artsakh suffered its bitter fate, and now it is Syunik's turn, which is now the target of Azerbaijan, to the shame of Armenians who, even after losing Artsakh, continue to tolerate the traitor and his unpatriotic group, who are handing over our sacred territories to the detested enemy piece by piece. The only consolation is the steadfast position of friendly Iran, that the second barrier of Armenia, fortunately, is still unharmed. Hopefully forever.
