      They also know what collaborating with the Nazis is like.

      I haven’t heard about this before, so I can’t argue about it at this point.

      Then you say:

      So I don’t think Armenia’s decision will have much of an effect.

      How you managed to draw this conclusion from your previous statement, is a mystery to me.

      And since you mentioned Nazi collaborations, I’ll say the following. I noticed that the sources you provided the one is Zionist and the other Polish, and both collaborated with Nazis for sure.

        How you managed to draw this conclusion from your previous statement, is a mystery to me.

        A state that is currently glorifying Nazi collaborators will automatically be dismissed as hostile to Jews and to Israel. Any action of theirs in related matters is therefore irrelevant.
        Unless they have a different goal. Like getting closer to states like Iran.

        And since you mentioned Nazi collaborations, I’ll say the following. I noticed that the sources you provided the one is Zionist and the other Polish, and both collaborated with Nazis for sure.

        How is that relevant to news sources?
        I was pointing out that Armenia is currently glorifying a Nazi collaborator, building statues of him and calling him a hero. Not in the past.

        And I don’t see how one can compare Lehi’s (which was the smallest of the Zionist paramilitary organizations) attempt to collaborate with and manipulate the Nazis to rescue Jews from Germany, to the Armenische Legion - A part of Nazi Germany’s army, which butchered people on their orders.
