Ex-President of Armenia: Weak leaders cannot command a victorious army

A victorious army cannot be commanded by weak-willed leaders. And if they are at the helm of the Armenian state, then the army will also suffer defeat.

According to the local edition News.am, such an opinion was expressed by the former President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan in his speech in honor of the Army Day celebrated by Armenian citizens today.

Any nation and state are doomed to non-existence if they do not understand that the first guarantee of their existence is the army. Any army is doomed to non-existence if it is led by an immoral coward who considers defeat a victory.

- said the third president of Armenia.

He believes that only its soldiers can selflessly guard the borders of their country. After all, they know that they need to protect their land, their children and parents. Foreign troops, even those belonging to a friendly state, will not do this. It seems that Sargsyan is hinting that, in his opinion, the Russian peacekeeping contingent is not capable of providing Armenia with security. Therefore, the politician believes, Yerevan should develop its own Armed Forces, and not rely on the help of a powerful ally.

And only a strong leadership of the country, says Sargsyan, will be able to make his army invincible.

He is echoed by the former Armenian Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan, who is now engaged in political activities. He believes that the armed forces of Armenia are capable of restoring their lost combat effectiveness.

A victorious army? This is it, sorry, about which army?

[Fisherman]

regarding Azerbaijan, they have quite comparable fighters ... after all, they took Karabakh at one time and held it for a long time .... another thing is that right now the Armenians of the whole world have given their homeland to Soros to be torn to pieces, this is a huge SHAME to the richest diaspora in the United States and the most influential in France - Armenian. With such influence and money, allowing the Soros journalist to come to power and lose territory is a SHAME! This shows the current unpatriotic state of the foreign Armenian diasporas, who have forgotten their homeland ... or rather, they remember, but they don’t need it as such - they spend money on its well-being, and not on their own, stuffing their stomachs. If we wanted to, we would have joined forces all over the world for a long time and at least bought Mount Ararat out of principle, which they pretend to yearn for ... this is hypocrisy. All the assets of Armenia (even the name of Ararat cognac) were withdrawn to France, so-so "patriotism" .

[alexmach]

Diaspora is to blame is obtained? The point is different. Azerbaijan is economically more powerful than Armenia at times. This economic advantage was realized by him at the expense of a better armed and equipped army. And what about Sagasyan .. is it not with him that Armenia has lagged behind Azerbaijan hopelessly?

[mher]

"guarantee of existence" is loudly said, so the liar ruined the army.

They would sit quietly in their nook. At one time (Armenian-Turkish war of 1919-22), Wishlist turned into the loss of half of the territory that the Armenians got from the Russian Empire. Soviet Russia then saved the Armenians from complete annihilation. They are as grateful as the "brothers".

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

She helped Kemalist Turkey with gold and weapons. Without this, it is quite likely that the Turks would have lost in the Greco-Turkish battle that was going at the same time, and then they certainly would not have been up to Armenia. There are no complaints about Soviet Russia for this, it solved its own problems with the Entente, but talking about saving the Armenians ... is one-sided.

I am not an Armenian, and I can offhand name outstanding Armenians - Aivazovsky, Khachaturian, Artyom Ivanovich Mikoyan, the founder of Mig, Charles Aznavour, Vakhtangov,. Hayk Hovakimyan - head of the Soviet residency in New York, Babadzhanyan, Amazasp Khachaturovich - chief marshal of the armored forces of the USSR, Khudyakov, Sergey Alexandrovich - air marshal of the USSR And from Azerbaijan I remember only Bulbul ogly and Muslim Magamayev ...

Thank you . I heard from you. I think it's not worth measuring pussy. Both Azerbaijanis and Armenians are unique peoples. With rich traditions, famous people all over the world, beautiful people, interesting culture. What to share with ordinary people? Why such hatred for each other? Who benefits from this hostility? Whose ears stick out behind these wars? The answer is one Britain and led by her like a donkey Turkey.

Before making such loud and unsubstantiated statements, find and read information about the awarded Armenians in the Second World War.
Yes, and try to find historical evidence of Armenian cowardice.

In India, the division into castes is still preserved. Castes there appeared as a result of centuries-old selection. Hindus legalized the division of people in their society according to the innate properties of the character of people. Some people, by their nature, are capable of trading. Others - to fight. Can merchants fight? They can, but not as effectively as warriors. Can warriors trade? They can, with the same success as merchants fight.
Why am I? If in some society for centuries the profession of a merchant was the most prestigious profession, then gradually people in this society will be more merchants, both as a result of natural selection (when unclaimed warriors die out) and as a result of the "evolution" of warriors into merchants ). To change the situation, you need to start fighting. Long fight. And so that the profession of a warrior becomes no less prestigious than the profession of a merchant, so that a "reverse evolution" occurs - i.e. the revolution.

A bit wrong)))
If merchants are the most prestigious in society, then they get the genetically best women who will give weak offspring (in military terms), and the more traders are in power, the greater the degradation of warriors among the people (in% of the total mass), because they get genetically weak women. At first there are a lot of warriors, but then the percentage of merchants is growing, and when it exceeds a certain percentage of the population, then this people is doomed. It's just a matter of time when the state of merchants degenerates, and then neighbors come, where society does not worship the golden calf and cut everyone to the root . Evidence - 5 years of human history.)))

Of course not, if you not only take a fragment out of context, but even from one sentence. Moreover, the word "die out" does not imply death in just one generation. Degeneration (biological) - a special case of extinction.

The entry into history is certainly interesting :) but now is a different time, people have not been beating each other with sticks for a long time (although India-China incidents do occur), and so, from the point of view of spirit and genetic memory, everything is pretty good in Armenia, because The first Karabakh war, the second Karabakh war, and before that, conflicts back in those days ... Caucasian mentality, custom, etc. - these are clearly not Swiss, in terms of mentality .... another thing is that in our age of technology and information, in order to conduct successful military operations, you need to get knowledge somewhere on how to fight and so that there is something else), so the most optimal path for them is adopt the experience of Israel and similar countries. And to have financial resources (this is where merchants come in handy) so that there is something to buy weapons with ....

Therefore, they, in theory, need only a sensible government that will set the right goal, define tasks and begin to implement it all).

And we need to decide whether it is worth getting into this conflict in the future. someday it will obviously blaze there ... and we will have only 2 options: 1) This is to come to the war and start hostilities with Azerbaijan, and most likely with Turkey. 2) Step aside. And here you need to weigh everything well).

First Karabakh War, Second Karabakh War

This is a moment, not a period of "genetic memory" formation.

Quote: Aleksandr21

therefore, the best way for them is to adopt the experience of Israel and similar countries.

What experience? Organizational? This is not enough. Even the article is about character. If you want a relevant example of character, this is the character of those who are commonly called "Caucasian highlanders."
And if we compare it with Israel, then the parable about the farewell parting word of a dying Armenian to his children immediately comes to mind: "Children, take care of the Jews!" Moreover, the history of the Armenian people is very different from the history of the Jewish people.

[Aleksandr21]

Quote: Vladimir Postnikov

Even the article is about character.

If we consider the character of an individual person (not a nation), then everything is individual, and much depends on upbringing, on parents, on the values ​​that a person has .... someone left for Russia / other countries at the start of hostilities, and someone then he went to defend his land, the same 18-19 year old boys .... and how many of them returned home? Everything is individual here.

Just like with us, in the story with the NWO, someone went on the agenda, and someone went over the hill ..... someone went into the trenches in Donetsk since 2014, and someone dumped him in Europe, you can Is it possible to judge the whole nation and its character by such actions? I think not.

And there are other stereotypes. for example, that the Chinese are merchants (as we believe), and the Russians are a warlike nation (as some of them think of us), but on the battlefield, everything will be determined by many parameters, starting from the individual character of a person - his military training + knowledge /skill/experience, etc. + technology rules .... now only one UAV can put so many people, and there does not have to be a "fighter by character" behind the control panel.

Castes appeared there as a result of centuries of selection

It is not true. Castes appeared there as a result of the conquest of the territory of India and the peoples inhabiting it.

Hindus legalized the division of people in their society according to the innate properties of the character of people

You are delirious. They divided them by origin.

Can merchants fight? They can, but not as effectively as warriors

Very interesting .. only a couple of years ago they said the same thing about Azerbaijanis. They were a nation of merchants. And whose nation do you think the Jews?

There is nothing to broadcast these fascist nonsense.

A categorical, but primitive view of the structure of society. Aliens can forcefully invade a foreign society in order to take dominant positions in it. This is a temporary turbulent intervention. Next, natural selection will work on the characters. This phenomenon is very interesting to trace on the example of ancient Rome, when Rome attached new societies to itself, and imported slaves gradually influenced the social structure of Rome itself.

It was immediately clear, Pashinin's henchman of Soros! If he remains at the helm, Karabakh can be written off. Yes, like Armenia ...

[dmmyak40]

The guys obviously forgot Vladimir Semyonovich's song "About a skater for short distances ...":
“The main thing is that the will, he says, be for victory.”
- Will-will, if there is too much strength ...

Read Bayazet Pikul, nothing has changed since those times in the Caucasus, the Armenians are definitely shown there.

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

Will a strong leadership give birth to billions of dollars to re-equip the army with modern weapons? Give birth to millions of people to compensate for the numerical superiority of the enemy? Paraguay had the strongest leadership in history. The whole country was killed together against the wall.

Well, if we consider the Yeltsin-Grachev army as the Armenian army, then yes, maybe comparable) Sergey Kurginyan will not let you lie) For some reason, the Armenians were wildly amazed and offended that they couldn’t repeat it like in the 90s, with someone else’s hands somehow more conveniently they always worked out) But the Armenian whims and whims stopped working, and the Russian liberals are not in power and can no longer transfer direct orders from Washington and Paris (to "protect" Armenian interests) to fulfill Pasha Mercedes.
Here are the statements of different people. They act only as eyewitnesses of those events, regardless of their political (sometimes opposing) views and positions on a particular issue:
1. “With regard to support for Karabakh, we are all quite knowledgeable people, so there is no need to say that there is no Russian contribution. Why say that? Was there no Russian mite in Lachin? Are you convinced of this? I will not comment further. Whoever heard me heard, ”S. Kurginyan said.

2. Edmon Vardanyan “If we don't join them, they will eat us,” predicted Sedrakyan, a deputy of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA)...after 91, what happened? We won in Karabakh, but who kept it? If there were no Russians, how would we have kept Karabakh? Our army held with the help of the Russians. If there were no Russians, how would we have conquered Karabakh?” Sedrakyan explained.
