Agree with Ruben Vardanyan. Our nation has to accept change and be willing to accept advise from diaspora to able to move forward and be at our best. Sadly, I don't see this now in my homeland. It needs a reboot in its laws and policies from where I stand.
I think a format of one-on-one conversation would be a lot more informative and than asking questions. Both of you have a vast knowledge of Armenian issues. A conversational show will be a lot better than an interview. Keep up the good work Eric. I really enjoy your program. Bobken Amirian
I wish we could see your candidacy to lead our country. We have past (Qocharyan, Serj, Levon, ... ) and present (Pashinyan), however we need to think about our future with someone like you.
Agree with so many great points raised by Mr Vadanyan. Also, interesting comments from Eric Hakopian on the perception of Armenia by the diaspora; lots of people in the diaspora, especially those who were born outside Armenia, have no understanding of real issues our country is currently facing. Sadly, the daily reality I live in.
Allowing people that don't live in Armenia to vote in Armenian elections is a terrible idea. If your last name ends in yan/ian you can pretty much get an Armenian citizenship. And we have enough Armenians outside with citizenship to become a decisive factor in elections. Do we really want people who might never even stepped foot in Armenia to decide who should govern the country?
Diaspora Armenians won’t contribute significantly unless they are turned into stakeholders, rather than being treated as donors and benefactors. Stakeholders have rights, they have entitlements and they have claims and hence, long term commitment to the cause.
«Я никогда в своей жизни не стремился к личному счастью и благополучию. Я постоянно стремился только к одному и боролся только за одно - за свободу и благополучие своего народа. Я не ищу признания своих заслуг и желаю лишь, чтобы был счастлив народ, которому я служу всю свою жизнь», - Андраник Озанян.
It is pleasant, inspiring and encouraging to hear humans who are set on such positive endeavors. Please do not ask people like E. Hagopian and R. Vartanian to run for political offices. We needs them on the outside of politics where they are doing what a politician may not be able to do. Shenorhagalootyoon
MR Eric Hacopian appears intimidated today in front of MR Vardanyan! I wonder why? May be the social standing, wealth and power of the interviewee! Money and it’s power in overpowering. I have been in such situations before. It’s not good for a healthy society!
No, not because of that. The reason is Vardanyan close to Putin and this so called media is subservient to Russia and is actually one of their prime sources of gaslighting putting Armenians in the fog about what is really going on and how dangerous it all is. Pay attention to no absence of usual Azeri hate speeches and bullying and there you have your answers.
@@memyself2696 why are you so hurt about Azeri hate speeches? Are you an Azeri yourself and if yes, Don’t you think some of the responsibility for this hatred lies with you also?
if we want to attract diaspora Armenians mainly from Middle Eastern countries, we must build subsidized apartments, with reasonable payment options, many Armenians will come. secondly we have to think of businesses and projects and offer stocks for people to participate $1000, $5000, $10,000 as much as they can invest without affecting their livelihood.
The representation of diaspora in Armenian parliament is better to have in a separate chamber. Representatives can be elected from every geographic region.

Syrian Armenians left Syria to come to Armenia around 25 000 now there is only few thousand left why ? There is no opportunity in Armenia in these government conditions.
Well, a lot of them had no intention of staying in Armenia. They just used Armenia as a transit country to get to the Europe/America. And that happened during Serjik's time. "these government conditions" were not involved.
@@johncarr7728 that maybe true to some extent. The way to tackle it is for the Western Armenians to take a more proactive stance, to get more involved, in every respect.

We have try reality of our situation what we have and forgot we had that's my idea maybe is right or wrong but that's it is now.
Armenian's need to study economics and apply it.
To have countrey to boat of you to understand to have countrey we have identity only money not work to be sacrifices for countrey.
No taxation without representation. No Armenian citizenship, no involvement in Republic of Armenia affairs.
So those who evade taxes should be stripped of their citizenship ?
@@zabugorsk Yes, that too. Armenia deliberately keeps Armenians born and raised in Western countries because of the genocide at arm's length.
@@johncarr7728 I’m not sure I follow. Who’s keeping whom at arm’s length?
@@zabugorsk Successive RoA Governments have kept Western-based Armenians outside political and economic processes. It is discriminatory.
