The Urgent Imperative of Fortress Armenia.
The Armenian State is facing an existential threat. Our national psyche is steeped in resignation, despair, and anger, our borders are vulnerable, and the fate of our sovereignty hangs in the balance. Considering the complex web of regional, geopolitical and international developments, the seeming imbalance in military positioning and capabilities, and a deeply divided society, finding a resolute path forward seems nearly insurmountable.
However, the answer is astonishingly simple: we have one overriding objective, which is to become our own security guarantors.
How do we do that? By each of us, every day, working on one common goal: building Fortress Armenia – a national, collective effort to safeguard the independence, democratic principles and complete territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia.
In this public talk, Al Eisaian, one of the proponents of Fortress Armenia, will:
Present the concept of Fortress Armenia and the absolute urgency of committing now and for the long haul,
Share current information on the situation on the ground and resources needed to ensure security,
List very concrete, actionable steps that each person can and should take to support this collective effort.
