Dear opposition community,

I am sure that almost all of you have the same desire: to get rid of these authorities. But it is necessary to understand that only this rash is not enough. Every citizen of Armenia needs unity and street struggle before the elections. Otherwise, CP will falsify your wishes and doesn’t care about each of your votes. In order to keep those votes and to implement them, a broad mobilization and street fight is needed before and after the elections.

Recently, CP was unnecessarily excited by an American IRI poll, in which, according to the data that reached me, the number of those who refused the survey was extremely large. Experts note that a certain part of people usually refuse to participate in this or that survey. In the case of the latest IRI Armenia survey, that number is almost twice as high (the vast majority of callers (10/7) refused to speak at all).

This proves that people live in an atmosphere of fear, disappointment and uncertainty. That people no longer expect anything and have no faith. This indicates that a large part of people is afraid, avoids or considers it pointless to even give their opinion to public opinion polls.

And in this case, who has a guarantee that the government, built on falsehoods and fed on lies, will tolerate the contents of the ballot box after handing over the homeland? Who is the naïve oppositionist who, after eight years of disasters, repression, political prisoners and a divisive atmosphere of hatred, is ready to believe in electoral victory?

It turned out that the way to win the elections goes through the process of expressing no confidence in the Prime Minister with a legal and united struggle.

If CP does not have the post of prime minister after 10 days, it will gather 1.7% of votes in the elections. The picture is almost the same in post-Soviet and Eastern European countries. For us, it’s even scarier.

Ironically, last night, at the very moment when US President Trump’s speech, in which he spoke about the destruction of Iran’s military potential and the victory of his country, was broadcast live on Israeli TV channels, the footage of the same speech featured a running line about the Iranian missile attack.

Footage from Israel this morning shows that the Iranian missile attack caused serious damage in that country, as the Iranian side used heavy missiles with tons of warheads.

Yesterday, the news that another air defense radar inside Israel was out of order as a result of an attack by the Lebanese “Hezballah” is another indicator that the point targeting of Israeli and American air defense radars is a new tactic used by Iran in this war, for which Tehran’s opponents were clearly not prepared.

Azeri president Ilham Aliyev signed a “historic” law regarding Nakhichevan, Azerbaijani media reports.

According to reports, it is about the law “On Approving Amendments to the Constitution of the Autonomous Republic of Nakhichevan”.

Before the implementation of these changes, it was stated in the preamble of the “constitution” of Nakhichevan that “the foundations of the region’s autonomy were laid by international treaties: the Treaty of Moscow of March 16, 1921 and the Treaty of Kars of October 13, 1921.”

Those agreements confirmed that Nakhichevan is a part of Azerbaijan, and its territorial borders were specified.

In the new edition, it is emphasized that Nakhichevan is an “inseparable part” of Azerbaijan.

Thus, “references to international agreements” are removed from the “constitution” of Nakhichevan.

The RA embassy in Iran continues to work in emergency mode. With the support of the embassy, ​​the second person with RA citizenship returned to Armenia on March 9.

On average, the RA Embassy in Iran receives about 20-25 calls every day, which mainly refer to the possibility of crossing the Armenia-Iran border. The border crossings from Iran to Armenia and from Armenia to Iran were carried out in a normal manner.

Due to communication restrictions, the Embassy of Armenia in Iran continuously assists in the transfer of information about Armenians there to their relatives.

As a result of the developments in Iran, there is no information about the Armenian citizens among those demobilized.

Foreign citizens also continue to apply to the embassy in order to receive information on the possibilities of entering the Republic of Armenia. They are provided with appropriate clarifications and necessary directions.

At the same time, the embassy continues to provide the necessary assistance to the diplomats of a number of diplomatic missions accredited in Iran and their family members in order to facilitate their return through the territory of Armenia.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned that the military offensive against Iran is “not over yet,” saying the operation “demeans” Iran’s spiritual leadership. This is reported by AFP.

“We strive to force the Iranian people to throw off the yoke of dictatorship. After all, it depends on him. But there is no doubt that with the actions taken so far, we are breaking their bones, and we are not done yet,” Netanyahu said during a visit to the National Health Management Center on Monday evening, according to a statement released on Tuesday.
