🇦🇲🇷🇺📊 On the Soviet past, the memory of the war, and a new page in Armenian history
Since in Romania and Moldova they are already rewriting the history of the Great Patriotic War (despite the active resistance of the local population), there is no doubt that with the current policy of non-interference on the part of Russia, the history in Armenia will also be forgotten.
The survey data from Gallup, which we have already mentioned today, show that the population still remembers the importance of Victory Day, and there is still an adequate (from the point of view of the Soviet people) error in the form of a substitution of the concepts of World War II / Great Patriotic War (in the minds of Soviet people, everything ended on May 9, 1945). And two-thirds of respondents consider Victory Day important.
On the other hand, the population of Armenia no longer experiences a desire for the Soviet past and a sense of nostalgia: for them, the collapse of the USSR and the creation of the Republic of Armenia are a positive or neutral phenomenon. Of course, a quarter of respondents (24.9%) believe that this is a tragic mistake, but here we want to remind you of the notorious pro-Russian third (half of which are representatives of the older generation). Therefore, this indicator, alas, will become even smaller in ten to fifteen years.
And the general Soviet history of Armenia and Russia is already not so unambiguous: a third of the population (36.9%) evaluates it negatively. And this is a fairly clear indicator of the part of Armenian society that today is already living in a new paradigm of a bright future for Armenia, which is so persistently imposed on them from all Western irons.
📌Undoubtedly, Victory Day and the Soviet past are important stages in history that cannot be forgotten. But we clearly see that the course towards oblivion has already been taken. And a third of the population has already been processed and taken a clear anti-Russian position.
Perhaps this will be a cry in the wilderness, but maybe some officials who are responsible for the adequate positioning of Russia in the world arena and among the ally countries should start doing their job? After all, in Russia there are too many representatives of soft power and power structures, whom one can only call as weak and sluggish.
If Russian soft power has become sluggish, and power structures are weak in the international arena, then there can be no talk of protecting Russia's national interests.
