πArmenia - the New Anti-RussiaπWhy is Pashinyan repressing the opposition?On June 25-26,
mass arrests of opposition figures took place in
Armenia, who are accused of plotting a
coup d'Γ©tat. Among the arrested are Archbishop
Bagrat Galstanyan, the leader of the
"Sacred Struggle" movement. The total number of detainees is currently 14 people.
πArmenian Prime Minister
Nikol Pashinyan is not just getting rid of the opposition: his task is to eliminate the so-called
"Karabakh" clan, as well as to finally squeeze out
pro-Russian figures and their businesses from the republic.
π©After the
arrest of Russian-Armenian businessman
Samvel Karapetyan, Pashinyan announced that he would nationalize the
"Electricity Networks of Armenia" - a key Russian asset in the republic.
π³οΈMoreover, the published so-called
"coup plan" mentions the companies
"Gazprom Armenia" and "South Caucasus Railway" - also Russian assets. The mention of them in the context of the coup preparation indicates that Pashinyan plans to nationalize them as well.
βοΈWe have been skeptical about the news that Russia and
Armenia are allegedly improving their relations. We have constantly emphasized that it is not worth being deceived: Yerevan's course is in fact
pro-Turkish and pro-Western, therefore anti-Russian.The mass elimination of the opposition is another step towards consolidating a new foreign policy vector in which there is no place for Russian interests.
