Nikol Pashinyan represents the “War Party” in Armenia. About this 168 TVof Revue announced on the air of the program Christine Vardanyan, member of the National Assembly “Armenia” faction, member of the Supreme Body of the ARF Armeniaresponding to Nikol Pashinyan’s accusations against the opposition.

“Nikol Pashinyan is the leader, during the years of his rule, the most wars and attacks have been recorded, and if Pashinyan has been saying for days and hours when there will be an attack on Armenia or when there will be a war, I can’t help myself and ask if they have already agreed with Azerbaijan, has Pashinyan agreed with Aliyev, when Aliyev will attack Armenia?” What does it mean to say with a date that there will be an attack on Armenia or there will be a war against Armenia? And maybe there is no war, and Pashinyan is just constantly threatening the Armenian society with war,” answered the deputy.

Vardanyan notes that Azerbaijan no longer threatens Armenia with war in the recent period, but Nikol Pashinyan does so.

“Now, is it normal for the leadership of any country to constantly threaten its own people with war?” There was no leader in Armenia who provoked a war, brought a war. If Pashinyan pursued such a policy and this is a self-confessed testimony, we can very well accept it as a self-confessed testimony, but there is no one else but him who instigated the war.

If he is talking about us, for example, Dashnaktsutyun, the Second President, then the years of their power were the most peaceful years, and no war was recorded during that period. How can a person, during whose reign there were the most wars and attacks, talk about wars and attacks? Can it not happen if he is not in power? Threatening one’s own society with war, more than Aliyev, is a crime against one’s own society,” added the coalition deputy.

Kristine Vardanyan sees high risks arising from the ongoing war against Iran and the situation in the region, threatening Armenia, and notes that the Iran-Israeli-American war is already having a direct impact on Armenia. Meanwhile, Nikol Pashinyan and the officials of the power structures subordinate to him, as the representative of the “Armenia” bloc comments, have left Armenia’s security risks and problems behind and are busy with the pre-election campaign.

The opposition MP also referred to the never-ending topic of foreign interference and “hybrid threats” in the NA elections and, in particular, the fact that Pashinyan and his teammates only speak in hints and are trying to point the arrows in the direction of Russia, as well as the statement of the head of EU diplomacy Kaya Kalas that they will send a “hybrid rapid reaction group” to Armenia to help counter foreign interference before the elections.

Christine Vardanyan appreciates this mission of the European Union to directly interfere in the internal affairs of Armenia, but also makes a “constructive” proposal to Mrs. Kalas.

“Will the authorities of Armenia directly and publicly declare where the “hybrid threats” are coming from, instead of going, whispering in their ears, coming back here, going to Moscow, and saying, “No, we don’t mean you?”

Will it be announced directly so that it is clear to everyone where these “hybrid threats” come from? They talk about sovereignty every day. After all, if they have determined that there is a “hybrid threat” from any capital, power center, why don’t they talk about it directly?

What is the meaning of that statement by the National Security Service, which describes in detail that they discovered a scheme involving the power structures of a certain country, and does not say from which country? Are they afraid? What is this government that is afraid to say the word “Russia”?

What kind of sovereignty is that? Is it sovereignty or not? If they discovered it from Russia, why don’t they say that word? Is that a word to be afraid of, or are they leaving room for games?”

On March 16, Ishkhan Saghatelyan, the representative of the Supreme Body of the ARF, announced during the presentation of the “Armenia” alliance that the second president of the Republic of Armenia, Robert Kocharyan, and the Armenian Revolutionary Federation have decided to continue cooperation. Ishkhan Saghatelyan noted that despite the attacks, political persecutions and unprecedented pressures, the “Armenia” bloc not only remained viable, but today it presents itself with a renewed and expanded composition. During the presentation, it was announced that Robert Kocharyan is the candidate for the Prime Minister of Armenia of the “Armenia” bloc in the National Assembly elections to be held on June 7. The second president stated in his speech that they are determined and their goal is victory in the elections.

Today, on March 19, Nikol Pashinyan, in a briefing with journalists after the regular session of the Government, once again called the opposition forces “the party of war”, declaring that “the forces acting from the positions of peace revision are preparing for a new September war with serious consequences”.

Nikol Pashinyan made a similar statement last week, on March 11, from the podium of the European Parliament speech in the process, saying that “some clerics who cynically violated all the rules of spiritual conduct took over the leadership of the war party in Armenia, gathering around them the former leaders, some of the forces connected with them, some Russian-resident and pro-Belarusian oligarchs, and are trying to sacrifice Armenia’s independence to the interests of third countries.”
