Armenia is “on the edge of the abyss”, Catholicos Aram I of the Great House of Cilicia said on Saturday.

“The chaos inside the country is gradually deepening. Mind out! Chaos may lead to unpredictable consequences. The salvation of the homeland requires compromises from all, as well as mutual understanding and trust. It is necessary to act with this sense, since tomorrow may be too late,” he wrote on Facebook.

Tensions rose in the country after the Armenian military’s top brass demanded the resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and his cabinet in a statement on Thursday, accusing them of misrule. Shortly afterwards, the premier signed an order to dismiss Chief of the General Staff Onik Gasparyan, but the decision is subject to approval by the country’s president.
