The head of the Union of Armenians of Russia announced his intention to unite the opposition to Pashinyan
The President of the Union of Armenians of Russia Ara Abrahamyan announced plans to "promote the unification" of political forces in Armenia that are in opposition to the current Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
The goal of the unification is to participate in the 2026 parliamentary elections. Abrahamyan expressed his readiness to use all his resources, including the potential of the diaspora, for the "revival of Armenia." In his opinion, the Pashinyan government is responsible for the loss of Nagorno-Karabakh, the transfer of control over strategic facilities to foreigners, the increase in public debt and the rise in prices.
"The history of the last seven years is a sad testimony to how Pashinyan, manipulating sentiments, made people who believed him unwitting accomplices to the deception and the national tragedy that we are witnessing today," Abrahamyan said.
Recently, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced a high probability of the country's withdrawal from the pro-Russian Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO). According to him, this scenario is more likely than Yerevan's resumption of participation in the bloc. Last year, Pashinyan reported that Armenia had frozen its participation in the CSTO, since the bloc poses threats to the country's security and its continued existence.
