There will be a message in the coming days about the revelation of a case of high treason. Acting Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this Friday during his meeting in Geghanist village of Armenia’s Ararat Province.
“As far as I have been reported on, this is not about a non-professional military. It is about the commander of one of the volunteer detachments, who, being on the battlefield during the [Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh)] war [last fall], was an agent of the Azerbaijani special services, and informed the adversary about the deployment of our forces in the Hadrut region and other types of spying information. The NSS [(National Security Service)] has already detained him. I know the name, the surname of that person, I know the name of the detachment he represented. This is a specific case of high treason whose guilt has yet to be proven,” he said.
Pashinyan added:” But I want us not to mix the right with the wrong. There were scenes spread on the Internet during the war that I still cannot understand to this day. How can this happen when a whole military unit full of weapons, ammunition, full of storages, and completely abandoned? These are questions we need to get the answers to. The less emotional state we go to it, the better.”
