We learned from our law enforcement sources that yesterday, before the press conference of “Strong Armenia” party leader Samvel Karapetyan, which was broadcast live, Nikol Pashinyan issued a new order to the law enforcement officers to carry out mass wiretapping among Karapetyan’s teammates and not only, and to “find dirt on” his supporters by all possible and impossible means and start a new wave of criminal prosecutions against that force.

Yesterday, a new attack was carried out against the “Strong Armenia” office in Syunik, and people were arrested again. Apparently, Nikol Pashinyan took a hard time with Samvel Karapetyan’s self-confident statements and harsh assessments directed at him, which especially denied the accusations that Karapetyan has problems with speaking.

Perhaps this was also the reason why the government’s propaganda machine was immediately put into action, they began to spread news with false headlines and completely distorted news. For example, one of the official websites published an article that allegedly Samvel Karapetyan said: “Robert Kocharian is a president who has won a victory, and we will join him.” Meanwhile, Karapetyan characterized Kocharyan as the victorious president and welcomed his statement that he is ready to join the force that received the most votes, that is, “Strong Armenia”.
