Alen Simonyan has criticized the decision to strip Armenia of its voting rights in the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), accusing the organization of remaining silent while Armenians were being killed.
Commenting on the decision, Simonyan wrote on Facebook a three-line verse in Russian:
“They deprived us of our voice where everyone remained deafeningly silent while they were killing us together.”
The original reads: “Лишили голоса нас там, где очень громко все молчали, когда нас дружно убивали.”
On November 11, participants in a CSTO summit in Moscow decided to deprive Armenia of its voting rights within the organization and its ability to appoint representatives to senior CSTO positions.
