The first interview was conducted on September 29th , 2020 , with playwright Karine Khodikyan . The questions discussed during the interview were the unity of the Armenian nation , the courage of Armenian soldiers and the violations committed by the Turkish-Azerbaijani forces . One of the important points noted by the guest was that Armenian people were somehow divided in their political views a few days before the war , but when the war started everyone gathered around the idea of defeating the enemy .
