YEREVAN.  – Pavlik Manukyan, a member of the armed group that seized the police regiment in Armenia and later surrendered to the authorities, addressed a letter to the authorities, which was published on Facebook by his lawyer Harutyun Baghdasaryan.

The letter, in particular, noted that the purpose of their group is to create a worthy Armenian state. However, their goal is hampered by the current government of Armenia, which dares satisfy their needs by selling the land acquired with their blood.

“Do you believe that there will be mutual compromises, rather than a compromise, and that after passing the liberated territories some forces will ensure the safety of our fellow citizens? Hasn’t our historyteach you anything?” Manukyan wonders.

Neither Königsberg nor Danzig or Strasbourg cannot be a part of Germany any longer, Lviv and Brest will never be a part of Poland. All these are the territories acquired by war.

“And we, as a country-winner, have restored historical justice,” the letter says.

Pavlik Manukyan noted that the authorities blamed them for standing against them, but they do not realize that this was  a struggle for homeland.

“And if you make a part of this nation, this fight is for the sake of you and your children's future,” he adds.

Manukyan, speaking to the authorities, said that Armenia's independence, territorial integrity and security are not just legal terms. They contain valuable notions such as a person, house, family,  country, honor, faith, dream, and others.

“Do not exterminate these concepts! Wake up, tomorrow will be too late! Perhaps our people will forgive the plunder and humiliation, but they will never forgive surrendering the territories,” Manukyan said.
