Armenia has officially recognized Palestine as a state. This is a brave move coming from an oppressed and long suffering nation that has endured genocide again in the last four years at the hands of Azerbaijan and Turkey. Armenia has given a slap to Israel which has unscrupulously armed and abetted Azerbaijan.
Armenia has longstanding ties with Iran. Only Iran has stood with the Armenians during their plight. Iran and its ally Hezbullah in Lebanon are therefore allies of Eastern Christianity. Eastern Christians should oppose any potential war against Iran and should stand with the Palestinians in Gaza.
The Armenian recognition of Palestine has even more crucial significance considering the attacks on the Armenian quarter of Jerusalem by extreme Israeli fanatics. The Armenians are embattled everywhere from Jerusalem to Artsakh, but they are bravely striking back and expressing support for the Palestinians who are suffering much like the Armenians.
If only Greek leaders had the ability and willingness to fight like the Armenians.
One reply on “Armenia Recognizes Palestine”
Agreed, this is a bold move by Armenia. Really, it’s long past the time when any solution which doesn’t include a Palestinian Sate should be discarded. Netanyahu is painting Israel into a corner and the Israeli people should depose him while they can.
