Armenia: I am Karabakhtsi · Global Voices
Onnik Krikorian

In light of divisions between ethnic Armenians from Armenia proper and the self-declared [Armenian] Republic of Nagorno Karabakh which were exploited and further encouraged by the opposition during last month's presidential election in the country, Archuk's blog proudly displays a banner stating that he is a Karabakhtsi. The idea for the slogan is modeled after that displayed by many Turks stating they were Armenian after the murder last year of journalist-editor Hrant Dink in Istanbul.
