Tolerance of Corruption brings wars...

Pain, pain, pain, cigarettes, cigarettes, cigarettes, screaming, hatredness...These all happens to people who are being attacked. I know this firsthand. These all happened with me, my friends, family and relatives during and after 2020 joint military attack of Azerbaijan and Turkey with carte blanche of Vladimir Putin personally. These all still continues and only time will heal our wounds.

The same, multiplied by 100 times, happens with regular Ukrainians because the size of war entering into Armenian territory itself is incomparable with what is going on in Ukraine. Let me be clear, I am against Russian military aggressive with each fiber of my being although for the sake of fairness I must say that Joe Biden with his "No pasaran" rhetoric gave the best political reason to Putin based on which he was able to start war against Ukraine (he simply justifies the war in front of his people saying "You see, they don't give guarantees that NATO will not be coming just next to us. They will take Ukraine to NATO").

But this article is not about that. This article is about the double standards and lack of dignified principles in so called civilized countries (EU, US, Canada and others) to call out corruption as corruption and stop doing business with them. Recep Erdogan, Ilham Aliyev, Vladimir Putin for decades were engaged in dozens of corruption scandals. Whether civilized countries stopped doing any business with them? No. Whether these countries adopted sanctions against Erdogan and Aliyev, Turkey and Azerbaijan? No. Moreover, right now, they continue pleasing them just to get a little bit more gas, oil, or transportation routes.

There is one saying in Armenian: "You can't be half-pregnant". Leaders of EU, US and of other countries representing civilized nations...Enough is enough. You either black or white, otherwise you are going to loose your legitimacy, your right to lead the world to freedom and democracy. You are at the edge of losing and you lost already it in the eyes of many...
