Mr Akhoyan also touched upon the manifestations of fascism. In his speech he noted: “As 70 years ago, today also there are forces next to us, which have not forgotten the Pan-Turkish programmes and like the ideologists of fascism also dream about geographically united territory. And we, like 70 years ago, and today, remember both the history and our real friends, leaning on Christian roots and joint victories.”
