PanARMENIAN.Net - Former MP Samvel Farmanyan called it a national disgrace and lasting shame that five years after the 2020 war, the Armenian authorities have yet to release or publicize a full list of the individuals who died during the war and subsequent tragedies.
He presumes that, following the war end, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan deliberately circulated only the number of casualties holding Armenian citizenship.
He recalled that on September 27, 2021, the Armenian government itself stated that 3,781 Armenian citizens were killed in the 2020 war and 283 were reported missing (Screenshot 1).
Given the tragic fate of most missing persons, the total number of Armenian casualties in the 2020 war alone amounts to at least 4,951, he said.
He asked journalists to verify whether the casualty statistics frequently cited by Pashinyan and his government for the 2020 war include victims from Artsakh, or whether discriminatory exclusion has occurred even in the matter of war dead.
