  Armenian media reveals how foreign mercenaries were recruited

Although there is not any military operation in Karabakh now, evidences of the Armenian crimes are revealed by themselves now. More accurately, they uncover themselves. Almost four months after the hostilities, the Armenian media officially confirmed the participation of mercenaries in the Karabakh war and even explained the scheme of their participation. Besides, for some reason, the Armenians still speak about some Syrian militants allegedly fighting "for Baku", while they themselves openly confirm the participation of international Armenian terrorism in the ranks of the Armenian army in the official media. With this in mind, they call them "patriots".

If earlier the Armenian media and other proclaimers of the Armenians somehow tried to hide, disguise or "play up" the participation of foreign citizens and representatives of the Armenian diaspora in the hostilities in the Karabakh war in the fall of 2020, now they decided not to hide these facts. Thus, the authors of “Sputnik” Armenia openly write about how “violent Baku'' prosecutes representatives of the Armenian diaspora from different countries, initiating criminal cases and applying for their extradition to various countries. This is absolutely true - all representatives of the Armenian diasporas, fighting on the side of the Armenian troops and de facto and de jure are criminals for us who violate both the Azerbaijani and international law. 

However, as you can see from the sense of the article, this fact causes only slight perplexity among the authors of the very article- why and for what reason? They put a question- does official Baku prosecute the "Armenian patriots"?  And then, they prove that actually this is the case. Just take and refer to it. 

“The fact of participation of French citizens in the war is out of question. However, does this mean that the official Paris is really obliged to sanction punitive measures? ”- the author also asks in the article. 

It can be felt that the authors of the article have no understanding of who is a foreign mercenary in accordance with the international law and for which actions are citizens threatened? For them, it seems almost like a kind of tourism. However, there is a big difference between an Armenian from France or the United States who goes to Azerbaijan to kill people and an Armenian who goes on a safari or photography tour to Africa.

There is an excerpt which makes it obvious that the Armenian media and the entire world Armenian diaspora are not at all against Armenian fighters from other countries and “understand them” perfectly. In this regard, there is no need to make the authors speak out - they betray the world Armenians, as they say "headfirst".

“Making claims to fellow citizens just because they are patriots of their nation would be not only unmoral, but also senseless. Nevertheless, it is almost impossible to prove the fact of participation of other citizens in hostilities outside the country. Therefore, in such cases law enforcement officials show understanding,”the article reads. 

As representatives of the Armenians are sure, “even in governments where participation in hostilities outside the country is criminalized, criminal cases under such articles are extremely rare. And the reasons are not only legal and political, but also humanitarian.” We can only make a guess about what "humanitarian reasons" as the authors state, allow people to travel and kill people in another state. 

And then it is concluded. "As a rule, society shows sympathy and affection for the accused," reads an article published on Sputnik Armenia. Thus, in Armenians’ logic, a mercenary and terrorist have the right to count on “sympathy” and “understanding”. 

Here it is necessary to remember statements made by the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev on this topic. Interestingly, Armenians also remember this.

As you know, in an interview with the “Al-Jazeera” TV channel, Azerbaijani President stated, whom he considers as a mercenary. "There is no difference whether they are of Armenian origin or not. If a foreigner participates in the war, then he is a mercenary," Aliyev stated.

In Armenians’ and their proclaimers’ logic, it is an acceptable case. “The President of Armenia answered Aliyev then. In an interview with the correspondent of the same TV channel, Armen Sargsyan not only admitted the fact of participation of ethnic Armenians in hostilities, but also called it completely natural, as it is usual for Armenians to bear responsibility for protecting their homeland,” also stated in the article. 

Further, the more. The publication notes that Azerbaijani Prosecutor's Office claims that apart from Armenian citizens, citizens of 19 states participated in the war. According to the information of Azerbaijan, Armenians came to participate in fighting in Karabakh not only from Europe, North America and the Middle East, but also from states such as Mexico, Brazil and Australia.

However, here they are in a hurry to "rejoice". It turns out that there were even more “Armenian heroes”.

“Unlike the first Karabakh war, this time the Armenian diaspora took a notable part in the hostilities,”the article reads. With a little explanation, it turns out that everything was “legal”, they tried to issue Armenian passports to such mercenaries in Armenia.

Moreover, the authors of the article are distressed that sometimes the representatives of the Armenian mercenaries reveal themselves. And that's the problem.

“Very often our compatriots reveal themselves without even realizing, when it is not necessary. And it is not only on social networks. "

For example, Artur Oganisyan, who lives in France was “spotted” in an interview with the Russian newspaper “Novaya Gazeta” speaking about his “fighting brothers”. French citizen Sipan Muradyan became the hero of the reportage broadcasted on “France 24” information agency. 

This is how Armenian mercenaries are "revealed" and the world Armenians "sincerely" regret it.

Then there is nothing to be surprised that Azerbaijan is officially engaged in criminal prosecution of all those “patriots” stated in the article. For example, French citizen Gilbert Minasyan. He is accused of fighting in Karabakh as a member of the ASALA. It becomes clear that in Armenians’ logic, as the self-dissolution of this organization happened 32 years ago, it removes all his charges. “Minasyan is 65 years old. He is actually engaged in a peaceful business - he runs “Monte Cristo'' restaurant in the center of Marseille,” the article reads. Thank you, we'll take into account where to look for. 

According to Armenians, no less “strange accusations”were brought against “Javakhkts” (Samtskhe-Javakheti, region of Georgia with Armenian population) Vahagn Chakhalyan. It turns out that he was deprived of his Georgian citizenship long before the war. And  according to the authors of the publication, he ceased to be a foreign mercenary and terrorist. No, he will still bear responsibility. 

The authors regretfully note that Azerbaijan has also initiated criminal cases against a resident of Paris, former Yerevan resident Artur Hovhannisyan, Harmik Hovsepyan from Tehran and Arushan Badasyan from California. 

"Now they need to think about being arrested if they decide to visit Azerbaijan," the authors write. 

Everybody will be found, and not only if they visit Azerbaijan, but wherever they are. All representatives of the Armenian diaspora and citizens of other nationalities who fought in the Armenian army against Azerbaijan will be found and brought to a criminal court. And thank you for giving their addresses, they will be useful.
