The people and the rulers


After the 44-day war, the society cannot find itself again. The defeat, the concessionary policy of the government, the lack of resistance has led to public apathy. Society has lost faith in its resources, as a result of which the consequences of defeat are more devastating. When you lose faith, you are already defeated. How to stand up and overcome the psychology of the loser, how to overcome the division? Anna Sargsyan discussed the topic with psychologist Davit Hayrapetyan.

Bare diplomacy


The country has found itself in a zone of complex turbulence of national, state, legitimacy and political identity. The range of these political topics is so wide and diverse that it seems that the establishment is specially involving the public in this constant conversation. This is such a dangerous process that the result may be the Republic of Armenia, but not an Armenian state. How to stand up and march under your own banner? Anna Sargsyan discussed the topic with Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ruben Karapetyan.

Whose side is the right?


As a result of external aggression in 2020 and after, many RA citizens were deprived of their right to life and property. To what extent is the Republic of Armenia responsible for this?

Anonymous Height. An episode of the 44-day war


The separate episodes of the 44-day Artsakh war are not studied that much. We know the territories of the Artsakh Republic occupied by Azerbaijan, handed over by the November 9 declaration, the names of the boys who died or were wounded during the war. We do not know who they are, where, how they fought, what problems they performed, what decisions they made on the spot.  The documentary "Anonymous Height" examines in detail and reveals one episode of the 44-day war, the capture of the hill called Anonymous Height in the south of Artsakh. We present a part of a full-length film.

Armenia in the interests of geopolitical centers
