Representatives of five parties met today in the office of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation-Dashnaktsutyun, ARF-D Supreme Body representative Ishkhan Saghatelyan told 168.am.
“Five parties participated – Single Armenia, National Agenda, Prosperous Armenia, Hayrenik. Overall, we discussed the situation created in the country and reached general consent over it,” he said.
Saghatelyan said Hayrenik party was represented by its president Artur Vanetsyan.
“Thanks God, I have not been infected, I am not sick. I wish good health to everyone,” Armenia’s former Prosecutor General, Doctor of Law Gevorg Kostanyan told an online interview on the 2nd TV Channel on Monday, dismissing reports that he has contracted coronavirus.
Reflecting on the situation with coronavirus in Armenia, Kostanyan stressed that many issues will inevitably receive legal and criminal assessments.
“If I’m not mistaken, we have recorded more than 270 deaths, therefore all this is subject to discussions and evaluations from the criminal and legal point of view. For example, would it have been possible to prevent these deaths if the state of emergency had been declared earlier? Would it have been possible to curb the spread of the infection and to reduce the fatalities if tougher and more efficient restrictions had been in place? These are crucial issues,” he said.
Kostanyan blasted the government’s response to the pandemic as “totally inefficient”, citing the spike in the Covid-19 cases and high death rate.
“When we impose restrictions which are supposed to be effective and there are new cases and deaths of such a rate, what’s the reason for it? Maybe they are inefficient or wrongly applied in the public life. To put it simply, Sweden is the only country in Europe that has opted against any restrictions to contain the spread of coronavirus. If I’m not mistaken, Armenia has the second highest number of infections per one million population after Sweden. Therefore, a question arises that the restrictions have zero efficiency,” he stated.
The sappers of the fourth group carrying out Armenia’s humanitarian mission in Syria have demined an area of 17,471 square meters in May, during which homemade shells and anti-personnel mines were found, the Center for Humanitarian Demining and Expertise of Armenia reported.
A total of 170,209 square meters have been demined since the first day of the mission, and 142,000 square meters of which were handed over to the Syrian authorities.
Due to the coronavirus restrictions, the doctors from the fourth group provided medical assistance to 549 locals in May. Thus, from February 2019 until today, Armenia’s humanitarian mission to Syria has provided medical assistance to a total of 12,584 patients.
And on June 1, the specialists of the Armenian group carrying out a humanitarian mission in Syria handed the gifts that were collected during an event to the Armenian Retirement Home of Aleppo and the orphanage of the local Armenian community.

Kim visited Armenia in the early episodes to visit the Armenian genocide memorial and talk important issues with the nation’s president.
The newest season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians got off it’s first six episodes before closing shop for COVID-19 but the first half of the season certainly did not disappoint. One of the most important highlights of the initial episodes was Kim and Kourtney’s heartfelt visit to their heritage land, Armenia.
Kim previously visited Armenia along with Khloe and was left enamored by the experience. As a champion of Armenian culture and progress, Kim has a made it her mission to use her celebrity status to bring more attention to Armenian world issues.
The origins of genocide were incited through tensions amongst Turkish immigrants who were displaced from conflict with the Russians in Armenian lands. These Turks began to hold resentment towards the culturally different and well off Armenian communities. Eventually an ethnic division developed between the groups. Soon after, Turkish propaganda from the popular Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) political party began to describe Armenians as traitors, thieves, and infidels. This sentiment spurned the actions that led towards the eventual genocide.
Since then, Turkey has failed to acknowledge their past regime’s actions. They claim that the conflict that took place does not constitute the embodiment of the term genocide. The Turkish government at the time of these atrocities stated that these were retaliatory measures towards a pro-Russian insurrection. However, there is minimal evidence to suggest that the Armenians had anything to do with the Russians at the time. The push for recognition of the genocide in the West particularly has not been easygoing. Turkey is a huge political power in the region which has led to many Western nations turning their back on the atrocities that took place. In 2010, the US Congress passed a narrow vote to recognize the events that took place as genocide. Now many activists are pushing for the Turkish government to do the same.
Kim Kardashian is a major figure globally. Her status may be somewhat comparable to modern day princesses. As a proponent for Armenia and the recognition of this genocide, she aims to help facilitate better relations between Armenia and Turkey. The two countries understandably hold fierce tensions still to this day. Kim hopes that through the acceptance of wrongdoing both countries can work to move past their precedent issues. It’s worth considering that our present time period is a new day and age with new people who are not necessarily responsible for the past transgressions of atrocious ancestors. A simple acknowledgement of wrongdoing is all that is necessary for the two countries to foster a new beginning in their relationship. With Kim using her status to bring awareness of this horrific reality, she hopes the modern world can acknowledge past mistakes and therefore progress forward. Fans can check out her emotional visit to Armenia in season 18 of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

Yerevan has once again fueled tensions with Baku by arranging a so-called “presidential inauguration” in the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan.
Following Armenian Foreign Ministry’s calling the fabricated oath of office a “democratic process,” officials at the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan said that speaking about democracy in the territories of another country is a testament to the aggression shown by Yerevan.
“The fact that the Armenian Foreign Ministry called the show around the so-called “inauguration” in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan a “democratic process” testifies not only the true nature of this aggressor state but also how far it is from the concept of democracy,” the ministry’s spokesperson Leyla Abdullayeva said in a statement issued on Thursday.
“The occupation of the internationally recognized territory of another state, the ethnic cleansing of the people living there, thus a gross violation of human rights is called aggression in the language of modern international law, not democracy,” the statement added.
After winning two-phase illegal “presidential elections” to the unrecognized separatist regime in the occupied Azerbaijani lands in March and April, Arayik Harutunyan was allegedly sworn in on Thursday in Azerbaijan’s occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region’s Shusha city. By participating in the so-called “inauguration”, Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, tried to justify the occupation of Azerbaijani lands, calling the move as “liberation” during his speech.
Head of the Azerbaijani Community of the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region, Tural Ganjaliyev accused Armenia’s leader of insulting the internally displaced persons (IDP) in Azerbaijan and inflicting a blow on the process for solving the conflict peacefully.
“This is in stark contrast to the intention to “prepare the peoples for peace” announced at a meeting of the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan in January 2019,” Ganjaliyev said.
Around one million Azerbaijanis remain internally displaced decades after a war that broke out in the Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan in the early 1990s. Anti-Azerbaijan sentiments in Armenia that broke out in the late 1980s escalated into a full-blown war launched by Armenia against Azerbaijan in 1991. The four-year bloody war resulted in the killing of 30,000 ethnic Azerbaijanis and the occupation of 20 percent of Azerbaijan’s internationally recognized territory.
Despite four UN Security Council resolutions and repeated international calls for Armenia’s withdrawal from the Nagorno-Karabakh region, Yerevan has continued to occupy Azerbaijani lands and maintained a military presence there, hence fueling one of the world’s most dangerous and long-standing conflicts.
While Baku condemned the so-called “inauguration” in the Nagorno-Karabakh region as an act of provocation, spokesperson to the Foreign Ministry of Armenia Anna Naghdalyan portrayed the recent developments in the occupied Azerbaijani territories as “democratic processes” and pledged that Yerevan will continue cooperating with the illegal “authorities” that represent the so-called “people” of Nagorno-Karabakh.
Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry’s Spokesperson Leyla Abdullayeva responded to her Armenian counterpart with fact-based remarks, saying Armenians living in Azerbaijan’s Nagorno-Karabakh region are part of a community.
“As regards the term “people”, to which the Armenian Foreign Ministry refers, firstly, the Armenians in the Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan are not the people, but the Armenian community living in this region,” Abdullayeva said.
“Secondly, in order to talk about the principle of self-determination of peoples, the Armenian Foreign Ministry must first find out what this principle means, read the Helsinki Final Act, and only then refer to this principle,” Abdullayeva added. “The fact that the aggressor country speaks about peace in its statements is the highest degree of hypocrisy. A country that wants peace will not pursue a policy of aggression, a country that seeks peace will not impede the negotiations process, and, finally, a supporter of peace will not be a serious threat to the peace itself.”
Meanwhile, the European Union and the Minsk Group of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), who mediates political negotiations for solving the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, have earlier denounced the so-called “presidential elections” in the occupied Azerbaijani lands.
“This event cannot prejudice the determination of the future status of Nagorno-Karabakh or the outcome of the ongoing negotiation process,” read the EU statement issued in March.

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has once again stressed the importance of Artsakh’s return to the negotiating table.
“No solution is possible without the participation of the elected authorities of Artsakh,” Pashinyan told a press conference today.
He noted that ensuring the return of Artsakh to the negotiating table is complex because the international community, the Minsk Group has been working in the current format for the past 22 years,” he stated.
Nikol Pashinyan said “we cannot make decisions on behalf of elected authorities of Artsakh.”
“If there is a solution which I will think is at least worth not to be rejected without consulting with the people, we’ll bring it to the attention of the Security Councils and Parliaments of the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Artsakh,” the Prime minister stated.
He noted that since 2018 he has concluded an “agreement” with people that should leave no room to manipulation.
Since 2018 I have made such a public agreement with the people, that there can be no room for.
“I’m asked whether we can agree to an anti-Armenian solution to the Artsakh issue. You should ask yourself the question. Will you agree to an anti-Armenian solution? Because the man sitting at the negotiating table represents the people of Armenia,” he said.
The Prime Minster stressed that there is one distinct principle – nothing is decided unless everything is decided.
