Speaker 11 Yeah, Donald Trump was huffing and puffing during a disastrous press conference.

Speaker 11 He looked sickly and weak as he was there with the leaders of Azerbaijan and Armenia announcing a fake peace deal, which was actually a surrender by Armenia of the territory known as Nagorno-Karabakh, which Azerbaijan invaded in 2020 during Donald Trump's first term.

Speaker 11 Donald Trump pledged to the Armenian community, to the diaspora here in the United States, that he would stand with them and fight with them to make sure that the land, the Nagorno-Karabakh land, home to 150,000 indigenous Armenian Christians who had to flee, would be returned to those indigenous Armenian Christians.

Speaker 11 But Donald Trump basically presiding over the surrender right there, not providing the support. Another promise broken, a fake peace deal being announced, which was really a victory for Azerbaijan.

Speaker 11 Now, during this disastrous press conference, Donald Trump also bragged how he is responsible he says for stopping world war three so even though he did not bring peace to ukraine in 24 hours as he promised the same way donald trump says he deserves the credit for this surrender of this uh critical land to azerbaijan donald trump's also saying give me the credit for what's taking place in ukraine now because there's no world war iii there would have been without me just listen to how pathetic this is here play this clip could have escalated in something much better.

Speaker 10 That could have been a world war.

Speaker 10 I think if we didn't come, Ukraine-Russia would have ended up being a world war.

Speaker 10 And I stopped that. That stopped.
Now the only question is, when is it going to be settled? And it could be very soon, but when is it going to be? But that would have been a world war.

Speaker 10 If I didn't come along with a very talented group of people sitting largely right here, but there are others not in the room that are very talented,

Speaker 10 I think Russia-Ukraine would have had a very, very high degree. I think even probably would have ended up being in a world war.

Speaker 11 And then Donald Trump talks about wanting a Nobel Peace Prize. He says that because he's of a particular persuasion, really don't know what that means, that he will not get a Nobel Peace Prize.

Speaker 11 But he's like, look at all the things I've done. I deserve a Nobel Peace Prize.
Here, play this clip.

Speaker 12 The Norwegian Nobel Committee will make their announcement as it relates to this year's Nobel Peace Prize on October the 10th, Friday, October the 10th. Is that date circled on your calendar, Mr.

Speaker 12 President?

Speaker 10 I can't say. I mean, a lot of people say, you know, no matter what I did, because, you know, I'm

Speaker 10 of a certain persuasion, no matter what I do, they won't give it.

Speaker 10 And I'm not politicking for it. I have a lot of people that are, I know.
I mean, I read the same things as you do.

Speaker 10 But it would be a great honor, certainly, but

Speaker 10 I would never politic. I'm not doing it for that.
I'm doing it because of,

Speaker 10 I really, number one, I want to save lives. That's why I'm involved so much with Ukraine and Russia, saving lives of Russians and Ukrainians.
It's not American lives now.

Speaker 11 Then Donald Trump says that America is not giving Ukraine any money anymore. NATO is the one paying for it.
And he says that is a good thing. Here, play this clip.

Speaker 10 People say, why are you bothering? We're not losing people. We were spending hundreds of billions of dollars.
Now we're spending nothing. We're spending no money.

Speaker 10 I guess we're making money because, you know, we're

Speaker 10 great. We have the best military equipment in the world.
We're selling it to NATO.

Speaker 10 But

Speaker 10 you're losing thousands of people a week. Russians and Ukrainians mostly.
Mostly soldiers, but missiles are lobbed into cities and towns. Kiev, lots of places.

Speaker 10 You've been reading the same stories that I've been reading. And

Speaker 10 we got to get it solved.

Speaker 11 Donald Trump is asked if Zelensky is going to be forced to give up territory to Russia based upon a

Speaker 11 purported deal that Trump is negotiating with Putin. And Donald Trump basically says yes.
Here, play this clip.

Speaker 10 Now, President Zelensky has to get all of his

Speaker 10 everything he needs because he's going to have to get ready to sign something. And I think he is

Speaker 10 working hard to get that done.

Speaker 11 Will Zielinski have to give up a chair for him to president?

Speaker 10 Well, you're looking at territory that's been fought over for three and a half years with, you know, a lot of Russians have died, a lot of Ukrainians have died.

Speaker 10 So we're looking at that, but we're actually looking to get some back and

Speaker 10 some swapping. It's complicated.
It's actually nothing easy. It's very complicated, but we're going to get some back.
We're going to get some

Speaker 10 switched. There'll be some swapping of territories to the betterment of both.

Speaker 10 But we'll be talking about that either later or tomorrow or whatever.

Speaker 11 Now, I think it's important to note the context that I gave you at the beginning of this video as well, that this deal with the leader of Azerbaijan and Armenia is basically saying that the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh, the Republic of Artsakh, no longer exists.

Speaker 11 It belongs to Azerbaijan, and the ethnic cleansing of the ethnic Armenians, 150,000, is basically being rubber stamped here by Donald Trump.

Speaker 11 He's showing absolute weakness, and he's being asked questions here. Will Zelensky be forced to give up territory?

Speaker 11 And Donald Trump, you heard there, basically saying, yeah, there's going to be some give and takes and swaps. That's what Donald Trump wants to see Zelensky do, tap out.

Speaker 11 And again, what Donald Trump could have done with Armenia is reached out and helped them or not allowed a deal like that to happen where Azerbaijan is given the approval to take over that land.

Speaker 11 Donald Trump then repeatedly can't hear or understand a question about if he'll visit Azerbaijan. Here, play this clip.

Speaker 13 Azerbaijan and Armenia after this meeting.

Speaker 1 To visit one country.

Speaker 11 And then Donald Trump basically makes these leaders from Azerbaijan and Armenia say that Donald Trump should get a Nobel Peace Prize. Here, play this clip.

Speaker 1 President Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

Speaker 1 I don't want to go into the history of some very strange decisions of the Nobel Peace Committee to award the prize for someone who didn't do anything at all.

Speaker 1 But President Trump, in six months, did miracles. So I think that my Armenian colleague will support it.

Speaker 1 And judging by the reaction of the audience, I think as soon as we come back, we will agree to issue a joint letter.

Speaker 1 And hopefully, and I also join when the president is awarded, we hope that he will invite us to the ceremony.

Speaker 10 He certainly will be.

Speaker 1 Thank you very much.

Speaker 1 Do we have a draft to sign now?

Speaker 10 Well, we'll see what happens.

Speaker 11 And here that is again, I mean, this is so utterly embarrassing. Here, play this clip.

Speaker 1 I think President Trump

Speaker 1 deserved

Speaker 1 to

Speaker 10 have a Nobel Peace Prize and

Speaker 1 we will defend that and

Speaker 1 we will promote for that

Speaker 15 and that's obvious.

Speaker 15 And today's event I think is a very bright expression of that

Speaker 1 and hopefully you will invite us

Speaker 1 to

Speaker 10 front row. You'll be front row.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. Thank you.
We are in favor.

Speaker 10 Thank you.

Speaker 10 Thank you.

Speaker 1 Can I have a suggestion? Yes. So maybe we agree with Prime Minister Pashinyan to send a joint appeal to Nobel Committee to award President Trump with the Nobel Peace Prize because

Speaker 11 Now, the executive director of the Armenian National Committee of America, the ANCA, says the following.

Speaker 11 The same Donald Trump who failed to stop Azerbaijan's 2020 attack on Nagorno-Karabakh is now rewarding this very aggression, compromising Armenia's security and sovereignty while aiding and abetting Azerbaijan's normalization and formalization of its ethnic cleansing, its genocide of more than 150,000 indigenous Armenian Christians.

Speaker 11 Now, here's what Donald Trump said on October 25th, 2020, about 15 days earlier, is when Azerbaijan, or right around this period, launched a full-fledged assault while Trump was in office of this territory.

Speaker 11 I mean, the war has been going on since 1994 or so, but it accelerated, of course, now when Donald Trump was in office then and now the full surrender, basically.

Speaker 11 But here's what Donald Trump said on November 25th, 2020. Let's play it.

Speaker 16 So now we have Armenia. Look at the Armenia.

Speaker 16 They are incredible people.

Speaker 16 They're fighting like hell, right? They're fighting like hell.

Speaker 16 And you know what? We're going to get something done because thank you. And I love you too.
You know, the Armenians have had a tough, they've had a tough go. But I saw, in fact, I was in

Speaker 16 yesterday, Ohio, actually.

Speaker 16 I was in Ohio doing, because I went through various stuffs, but in Ohio, we had a tremendous group of Armenians with the flag and the whole thing. The The spirit

Speaker 16 and the problems that they have and the death and the fighting and everything else. We'll get that straight now.
That's going to be, I call that an easy one, okay? We'll get that.

Speaker 16 Go back and tell your people.

Speaker 16 Go back and tell your people. All right? We'll get that straight now.
Armenia, why not?

Speaker 16 It's easy. If you know what you're doing, if you know what you're doing, it's like that.
If you know what you're doing, it's easy.

Speaker 11 And just a reminder of kind of what's taking place in this region and the surrender that just took place in the Oval Office.

Speaker 11 Here's how France 24 describes what took place and how Azerbaijan basically removed all of the

Speaker 11 symbols and all of the signage showing

Speaker 11 the ethnic Armenian presence in this area, in the Republic of Artsakh, in the area, in the region here. Play this clip.

Speaker 13 It was one year ago, an exodus of 120 000 armenians from nagorno karabakh forced to flee in the face of azerbaijan's military offensive in the region

Speaker 13 a territory disputed by the two nations since the fall of the soviet union

Speaker 13 karabakh's flag trampled by the victors armenia denounces ethnic and cultural erasure

Speaker 13 Journalists are not allowed to enter the enclave, but by analyzing social media and satellite images, we can see the changes made by Azerbaijan.

Speaker 13 Among the first elements found, these photos proudly posted by the new occupants at town entrances.

Speaker 13 On these blue signs, the names are now written in Azerbaijani. The Armenian name now gone.
Stepanakirk, the capital, has now become Kankandi.

Speaker 13 This 50-meter-high cross has been the city's emblem, both a Christian symbol meaningful to Armenians and a telecommunications tower.

Speaker 13 We locate it in May 2022 in these satellite images.

Speaker 13 Then, in September 2023, these images posted on social media show the cross broken into two pieces. Across the region, Azerbaijan, a Muslim-majority nation, has been removing Christian iconography.

Speaker 11 We're getting more word from individuals from the diaspora.

Speaker 11 You have

Speaker 11 comments like this as well. Armenians want peace, but erasing Nagorno-Karabakh is not peace.
Normalizing ethnic cleansing is not peace.

Speaker 11 Abandoning Christian holy sites is not peace. Forsaking Armenian hostages and prisoners of war is not peace.

Speaker 11 Accepting the occupation of Armenia is not peace. Peace at gunpoint is not peace.
The peace agreement is, again, likely to upset Armenian Americans because it doesn't address the ethnic cleansing.

Speaker 11 It doesn't address the genocide. It doesn't address everything that Azerbaijan did.
Real peace must be predicated on justice and accountability for Azerbaijan's ongoing human rights violations.

Speaker 11 These issues shouldn't be left on the back burner.

Speaker 11 Alex Galitsky, program director of the Armenian National Committee of America Advocacy says, a deal that rewards Azerbaijan's aggression, undermines Armenia's sovereignty, and denies justice to Artsakh's Armenians, will only make it harder to resolve these critical human rights issues down the line.

Speaker 11 Putting a gun to the head at an at-risk Christian nation, the first Christian nation, a landlocked, blockaded, genocide-surviving state, and calling it peace is as cruel as it is cowardly.

Speaker 11 Armenia is a victim of a century plus of genocide, and this deal aids and abets her enemies.

Speaker 11 Armenians in Armenia and worldwide reject the fake peace deal being forced on Armenia at the point of a gun. Another, again, not a peace deal.

Speaker 11 And I think we need to view this also into the context of Donald Trump's discussions here with

Speaker 11 Putin, because this is exactly what Trump wants Zelensky to do as well.

Speaker 11 Give up, give all the territories to Putin, say goodbye to Ukraine, and the United States just kind of sits back and lets the aggressors do this versus the United States doing what it used to do in the world.

Speaker 11 I hope that gives you a broader geopolitical perspective also of what's happening there.

Speaker 11 And shout out, by the way, to all of my Armenian friends here in California, across this country and across the world. Thanks for watching.
