YEREVAN. – Armenia has long felt the need to create a platform for discussing issues facing the country in a calm environment. Vazgen Manukyan, the founder of Vernatun Club and ex-chairman of the Public Council, said this at the November 15 meeting of this club.

According to him, contacts are important for forming opinions and for solidarity, and the club is still in the process of formation, several discussions on Artsakh, the economy, and the internal situation were held.

There are three main issues on today's agenda: The situation around Artsakh, the moral and psychological situation in Armenia, and legal issues.

As a starting point for today's situation, Manukyan mentioned 1965 - the year of the rebirth of the Diaspora and the awakening of national ideas. He noted that the accumulated ideas “exploded” with the Artsakh movement in 1988. "[But] then the deviation from the line started," he added.

According to him, corruption has been reduced in Armenia, but there is no special progress.

“Has the state been returned to the people? No,” noted Manukyan. "Now all the problems of Armenia are solved by one man [i.e. PM Nikol Pashinyan]."

"On solidarity: I have not yet seen such a divided Armenia," Vazgen Manukyan stressed. “Quite complex relations have been created with the leadership of Artsakh. The impression that an attempt is being made to settle the matter somehow and to live a quiet life in the future. (...). We and the people of Karabakh have said what we want, and we shall achieve [it].”
