David Vardanian: “Baku is using my father’s image to frighten Armenians”

In an interview with the French publication Le Spectacle du Monde, Ruben Vardanyan’s eldest son David described the conditions in which his father is kept, how his father is contacted and why the trial resembles the Theatre of the Absurd. David stated that the videotaped arrest of his father in September 2023 is part of Azerbaijan’s strategy against the entire Armenian nation.

“Baku is using my father’s image and his authority to send a message to the world. Unfortunately, we can say that they succeed in some respects,” David noted.

Also Ruben Vardanyan’s son answered the question about what can contribute to the release of his father and other Armenian prisoners. He attributes hope for their return home to groundswell and pressure on Azerbaijan from Western governments.
