The ongoing events may have grave consequences for Armenia unless everyone comes to realize that the national interests are the highest value, priest Asoghik Karapetyan told Tert.am as he commented on the latest developments in Armenia’s capital, particularly on the clashes between civilians and police.
“Armenians are confused. What our society badly needs is peace of mind and sincere dialogue. The numerous difficulties in our everyday life have created tension. The present situation makes us all, especially intellectuals, responsible for talking to our fellow-citizens while we consider our national interests superior to everything else, making efforts to lead them to the right way and keep them from blind hate and its aftermath,” said Asoghik Karapetyan.
