It so happened that the month of May entered the history of our people as the month of victories. After 2023, the concept of “Victory” is gradually being ousted from the ideas of our national consciousness. At the political and propaganda level, the attack on the modern history of Armenia – a reliable support for national self-awareness and national spirit (as with all nations) continues. With all the globalist rules, our people are deprived of the history of their past, and history is deprived of its heroism. It is stated without a shadow of shame that the Armenian people have been poor and weak throughout their history, “never won a single war,” etc. Our intelligentsia will probably ponder for a long time over the incomprehensible fact that after Nikolai’s “revolution,” our country was not dominated by the natural processes of growth of national self-awareness, national pride, and self-respect, but by the moods of delusion, decline, and defeatism, which were widespread among us, especially after the genocide. In parallel with the heroic Battle of Sardarapat, the victory over fascism in World War II, and especially the two victories in the Artsakh Liberation War, with the acquisition of the desired independence, during the years of the rule of Presidents Levon Ter-Petrosyan, Robert Kocharyan, and Serzh Sargsyan from 1991 to 2018, the defeatism widespread among our people was gradually overcome. The society, which in domestic and world history was able to demonstrate rare heights of national spirit and unity, pride and self-respect, and was ready to solve even more complex national problems, today, as a result of targeted propaganda, is forced to “renounce” its heroic past and immerse itself in the fictitious image of the “real Armenia”. A template in which there are no victories, no heroes, no national pride, no national ideals. Of course, what has been happening since 2018 could not have happened on its own. It is imported from abroad and is the result of official targeted policies and propaganda carried out by the current governments. May 8, 1992 – the day of victory in the First Artsakh War, marked by the liberation of Shushi, and May 9, 1945 – the day of victory over fascism, celebrated with the active participation of the Armenian people, have recently been officially forgotten, on the one hand, and on the other hand, their victory for our people has been questioned. It is still unknown what 1918 was like. The current attitude of these ill-fated rulers to the 9-day heroic battle of Sardarapat, which took place from May 21 to 29 and became fatal for the “real Armenia”.
