In an interview with Online.UA, Nemesis Group fighter Felix "Dzhanych" told what motivates and inspires Armenians to fight for the independence of Ukraine.
Points of attention
- Volunteers from Armenia are motivated to defend Ukraine and their homeland from Russia.
- Felix "Dzhanych" emphasises the importance of awareness of humanity's common history against the backdrop of the challenges that are emerging now.
- Armenian volunteers independently joined the Nemesis Group because they already knew about the successes and achievements of the community during the war against the Russian Federation.
Nemesis Group is a community of Ukrainian Armenians who have been taking direct part in combat operations in the war against the aggressor country of Russia since the first days of the full-scale invasion. The chevron of the Nemesis Group depicts the king of Armenia from the family of Bagratuni and the patron of the Armenian army Ashot The Iron.
Armenians are fighting for justice and Ukraine, which they have genuinely to love
As "Dzhanych" notes, his compatriots who live in Ukraine know very well where the truth is and where lies.
They do take up arms to protect their homes and families from the Russian invaders.
I grew up and live here, but I love my Armenia just the same. I have two countries. Any Caucasian who fights in Ukraine has a homeland by blood, and there is a homeland where he lives. I love my Armenia — it is the best, the most beautiful, the most precious. I have all my tattoos filled with the Armenian language. I even have "Armenia" written on my chest in Armenian letters, and none of my relatives, not even Ukrainians, said to me: "Why did you do that?". And I clearly and proudly say: "I love this country — Ukraine, and I love my Armenia!"

"Dzhanych" revealed the motivation of the Armenian volunteers fighting for Ukraine against Russia
As the Nemesis Group fighter points out, he does communicate with many of them.
Felix "Dzhanych" says that Armenian volunteers go out to their community independently because they monitor the Nemesis Group's activities and successes.
The motivation of such soldiers is always the same—to defend their homeland, to defend Ukraine, and to stand up for the truth.
Because, I will emphasize one point, as it turns out, during this war it became clear that each country has its own history, each has such a feeling, as if everyone lived in their own world, on their own globe, and had their own history, and no one else did not know. And then they dumped everyone on the same land, and that's all: "I have my own story, I don't have my own," explains Felix "Dzhanych".
