Video: Levon Ter Petrosyan Mocks Robert Kocharian



In this undated video, Levon Ter Petrosyan suggest that Robert Kocharyan is not Armenian, an obvious jab at Kocharyan's ancestry. Fast forward a few years and Kocharyan is the one in power while Ter Petrosyan is attempting to wrangle it away from him. That's politics for you!

Edit: I stand corrected. I did not read the Armenian caption and completely misconstrued the message. Thank you all for pointing it out!

You're misinterpreted the video.

Ther-Petrosyan asks: "Hayr Mer'eh gides?" The Lord's prayer.

Kocharian responds: "Albanatsi em" Referencing Azeri revisionist theories that Karabakhtsis are Armenianized Caucasian Albanians, and not true Armenians.

Right you are, my friend. I stand corrected!
