Armenian society demands changes

Many people do not like the results of these elections, we all understand that there were falsifications, pressures, threats, use of administrative resources. With all that, there is a hopeful side: Pashinyan DOES NOT have the majority vote anymore. 1,476,597 − 727,160 = 749,437. This is the CEC data, without recalculation. The majority of voters, 749,437 people, are against his prime ministership, against his policies. It is a fact, a dry but very telling fact.


For me, this is an indicator that people actually want a change of government, people came to the polling station, actively participated in order for there to be a change of government. At the same time, it is a fact that a single political force cannot do this, there is no such force that can achieve it alone, so we must learn to work together, if, of course, the goal is to remove Pashinyan.


These days I have been approached by various people outside, most of them a little upset with the results, but persistent. I honestly say that I see the determination of the Armenian community to get out of this situation, it is really obvious that people do NOT want such an immoral leader, they don’t want that and that’s it. For me, Armenian people who like to think, reason, who love Armenia not with words, but with heart and deed, who do not accept a leader who can say that our entire fight was in vain, that Artsakh was “not our land” or to be proud of the war and ethnic cleansing, because it “liberated” us from Artsakh… people who reject this devaluation, those people are the majority, and this is the most correct and good impulse to all public and political forces, that we should give people strength, hope, not build politics on fears, that has tired us all, build on culture, history, national identity and our unique ability to stand up.


It should be understood that this fight is a civilized one. They want to convince us that the right thing to do is to live “in peace”, that we are useless and incapable, but in these elections, the Armenian community showed everyone that it does NOT want to live “in peace”, it is strong and does not surrender to the will of others even after such severe trials. This should be clearly understood and guided by this idea. The rest is a matter of time and technique. The important thing is to learn that a problem cannot be solved alone, there is no one who solves the problem for us, we are the ones who solve the problem, together, respecting each other, listening, understanding and moving forward.


Armenia is an infinitely beautiful country, it deserves that we continue our fight and struggle for its empowerment and standing up.

The Armenian government will allocate about 4 billion drams to support companies engaged in the export of fresh fruit, wine, cognac and mineral water. The move is aimed at helping local producers diversify consumption markets amid Russia’s tightening of import conditions.


The support program was officially approved at the June 11 executive session and plans to provide financial compensation for deliveries made this month. The urgency of finding alternative directions is determined by statistics. In 2025, the total export volume of the above-mentioned goods exceeded 106 billion drams, of which 81 percent went to the Russian market.


In order to increase the international competitiveness of Armenian products, the state will subsidize each exported kilogram or liter with a fixed amount.


Funding will be distributed by product type. In particular, 400 drams will be paid for each kilogram of exported cherries, 200 drams for apricots, and 250 drams for plums, peaches and nectarines. In the beverage sector, compensation for one liter of bottled wine will be 350 AMD, for mineral water – 150 AMD, and for one absolute liter of bottled brandy, 830 AMD will be provided. The government expects to export about 11,500 tons of fresh fruit in June alone, mainly apricots, as well as a large volume of alcoholic beverages and water.


In order to use state support, resident organizations and individual entrepreneurs must apply to the Ministry of Economy, attaching copies of customs declarations and invoices.


This government decision follows a series of trade restrictions recently imposed by Moscow on Armenia. Since the beginning of June, Russia has temporarily closed its market for a number of Armenian agricultural products, including Indian fruits, eggplant, potatoes, dry fruits, and fish products. In the past, similar restrictions were also imposed on the supply of flowers, some types of mineral water, brandy and wine.

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced the start of the development of a new strategic plan at the inaugural session of the government following the parliamentary elections. The main goal is the construction of a “new quality state”, the core of which is ensuring the safety, freedom and well-being of citizens.


Congratulating the members of the executive at the session held on June 11, the head of the government emphasized that unlike the previous two cases, when the cabinet was formed as a result of extraordinary elections, now there is enough time to calmly plan structural and programmatic issues. The work on the new program has already started and will continue after the final formation of the new government.


The Prime Minister paid special attention to the need for a comprehensive analysis of the work done in previous years. According to him, it is necessary to clearly record in which directions efforts should be increased, which initiatives should be abandoned and where the results are still insufficient.


In order to make daily work more efficient and targeted, Pashinyan proposed to separate clear priorities in the new document and even set “priorities of priorities”.


Noting that any strategy should be flexible and quickly adapt to changing challenges, the Prime Minister reminded of the main target of the previous plan, the peace agenda, in which the government was able to achieve results.


Summarizing the speech, he added that the main feature of the new phase that is starting is not the sudden and unexpected changes, but the uninterrupted continuity of the already started works and the sharp increase in efficiency.

Armenian citizens have no reason to worry about the possible price increase of natural gas at the moment, because the existing supply agreement with Russia is valid at least until the end of the coming winter.


Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure during the briefing held in the National Assembly on June 11 Davit Khudatyan assured that the possibility of gas price changes in the near future is excluded due to the existing contract. At the same time, the head of the department did not specify what price policy will be in effect after the winter, when the agreement expires.


According to the minister, the Russian side has no reason to unilaterally terminate the contract. He assured that Yerevan receives the energy carrier according to the approved schedule and agreed price, and the working relations with the partners remain in the normal course.


Khudatyan urged not to artificially create the impression that Armenia is more interested in increasing the gas price, adding that the authorities manage all possible risks, and the real picture is much more stable than in public perceptions.


These statements of the Armenian official follow the last warnings from Moscow.


Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation at the end of May Dmitry Peskov stated that in case of Armenia leaving the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) and moving towards other economic blocs like the European Union, Russia will stop granting privileges and sell gas to Armenia exclusively at market prices.
