HIGHLIGHT: Russia is playing an important role in ensuring Armenia’s security, Armenian Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan said in an interview with EU Observer on Monday.
YEREVAN, July 2. /TASS/. Russia is playing an important role in ensuring Armenia’s security, Armenian Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan said in an interview with EU Observer on Monday.
“Russia today is playing the role which provides hard security [for Armenia]. Look at Azerbaijan. Look at Turkey. We’re a country that has been blockaded for 27 years by these two states, a country which has existential security threats,” he said. “Is there anyone else standing there ready to help?”
He cited the examples of Georgia and Ukraine. “Look at the countries who are trying to become NATO members [Georgia and Ukraine]. How long have they been in the queue? Ten years, is it? We can’t afford ten minutes,” he stressed.
He ruled out any possibility of Armenia’s quitting the Eurasian Economic Union. “What happened in Armenia [the Velvet Revolution] – was it democratic enough for you? Was it good enough? Or does it have to be anti-Russian for it to qualify as democratic?”, he said.
Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has repeatedly said that his political team wants to expand strategic and allied relations with Russia.
The men’s basketball team of Armenia failed to o overcome the pre-elections of the 2021 European Championship.
In the last game of the Group B, our basketball players had to score a total of 26 points more than in the Danish team to win the first place. However, in the Copenhagen match, the opposite result was recorded, with Danish basketball players reaching an advantage by 90:64 (22:16, 18:26, 28:12, 22:10). Hess earned the most points (20) in our team.
Thus, the Armenian team suffered a second defeat at the championship, occupied the second place and finished its performance at Euro-2021, and Albania-Denmark match result will not have effect on it.
Tournament table:
Denmark 3 250-204 6
Armenia 4 299-296 6
Albania 3 197-246 3
Today Healthcare Minister Arsen Torosyan, presenting the amendments to the law “On Drugs”, said that it was postponed until July 1, 2019, but this does not apply to antibiotics and psychotropic drugs that would be sold again by prescriptions in pharmacies.
Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan responded: “This one year should be the essense of practicly presentimg the programme to the society and people should be convinced that this mechanism should be used in their favor rather than against them. If it turns out that this law is against the people, then we will put it down, if the opposite, then we will invest it. We cannot find a solution to a problem by postponing it all the time.”
The minister also added that the amended version of the law would be submitted sooner than expected – they would not wait for one year and would present all the issues. “This is the 2nd postponement, since it was invested last time too quickly.”
“It is necessary to conduct an active dialogue with the mass media and the public on this issue, and the solutions should be not only on paper, but also an applied model should exist. The law should not come into force and after we understand that there are such problems,” said Nikol Pashinyan.
Ombudsman Arman Tatoyan said in his turn: “The large number of people who had appealed to us before were due to these changes in the law. People were in panic due to polyclinics not to work on weekends, medicine not to be sold without prescriptions. We will integrate our efforts into informing and will work together.”

TMR Editor’s Note:
We totally agree with the explanation provided in the screenshot below by a reddit commentator.
Does anyone really believe that Anthony Bourdain hung himself in this quaint little French hotel without leaving a single warning or clue? He gave no indication whatsoever of committing an act of suicide. Most significantly, he just was not the type to take such a radical leap that was so contrary to his nature.
What is especially suspicious about this Illuminati hit is that “CNN said Bourdain was in Strasbourg filming an upcoming segment in his series “Parts Unknown”. When was the last time someone so engaged with and enthusiastic about their work killed him or herself ON THE JOB.
Like so many other so-called suicides, this one just doesn’t add up. What does make sense is that Anthony made a bunch of VIP enemies and showed no signs of slacking off in this regard. Moreover, it’s as though he got bit by the truth bug and he was going to expose it however he could.
Then there is this tweet by Hillary Clinton’s former campaign spokesman, Brian Fallon. He tells Anthony Bourdain to “Go eat a scorpion or something.”
The following screenshot details more of the back story of what was really a rapidly exploding public feud.
Infowars also has an important perspective on this murderous affair as follows. Alex Jones provides critical insights into the awakening that Bourdain was quickly experiencing and then sharing with the world via his high platform at CNN.
There’s no question that this duo — Anthony & Asia — had completely left the reservation of political correctness. Not only had Asia already gone totally rogue on the Hollywood Pedogate scandal, she has shown more fang in the establishment forums than anyone else in the #MeToo movement. View this video in order to really understand just how deep into the swamp Asia had gone.
The screenshot below offers crucial insights on Anthony Bourdain’s girlfriend — Asia Argento — a #MeToo firebrand of the highest order.
Now here’s Anthony Bourdain’s reaction to Asia Argento’s speech at Cannes. It ought to be obvious that Anthony greatly empowered his girlfriend to take on the Hollywood elites… right on their own turf. This has NEVER happened before…and will probably never happen again now that the Hollywood mob has murdered Anthony.
Now here’s the real kicker, as if the foregoing list of grave offenses against the establishment was not serious enough.
The scuttlebutt on the street is that, during Anthony Bourdain historic visit to Armenia, the locals took advantage of his ardent interest in history and revealed the truth about the Armenian Genocide. Given Turkey’s central role in that holocaust, he would undoubtedly incur the wrath of the current government in Ankara. President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan won’t even entertain the remote possibility that Turkey was the main culprit in the first genocide of the 20th century. See: Syrian Holocaust: Turkey Copies The Armenian Genocide Game Plan
So taken in by the true story of the outright genocide of the Armenian people during the second decade of the last century, Anthony had talked about a made-for-TV production exposing the facts as they have never been disclosed before–by the Armenian people themselves.
The reason why such a production would be so problematic (and radioactive) is because the Syrian War, which has occurred exactly 100 years later, was actually modeled after the Armenian Genocide. It has also been perpetrated by the very same state actors—Turkey, Saudi Arabia, United States, United Kingdom, as well as various elements within the worldwide Zionist movement. See: How the Syrian War and Ensuing Exodus were Modeled after the Armenian Genocide
The bottom line here is that Anthony Bourdain had made one too many enemies, and on so many fronts that the power elite felt genuinely threatened. The Illuminati will never hesitate to take out anyone who crosses their red lines. It appears that the courageous Bourdain crossed many just this year alone.
Side Note: What even Anthony Bourdain’s closest associates were totally unaware of is that he was only now coming into his own. Being a world famous chef, travel documentarian, TV producer, director, and writer, as well as a prolific author were but a preparation for the next stage of his life. As Anthony approached 62 years old, he set himself on a new life’s mission of truth-telling which put him in direct opposition to the power elite. Because he enjoyed such a high platform in the mainstream media (CNN), the elites would not allow an awakening soul to exert the powerful influence on society of which he was capable.
This meticulously planned murder of Anthony Bourdain was designed to do one thing more than anything else. It’s purpose was to send a strong message to every other famous TV personality and Hollywood star that going rogue WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.
It was quite obvious to everyone who knew Anthony that he would never take his own life. This is precisely why the authorities concocted such a ridiculous and implausible suicide story; they knew that everyone who needed to hear it would get the message. Of course, his girlfriend Asia got the Illuminati warning loud and clear.
Just like they hospitalized (psychiatric ward) Kanye West after he let loose with some hard truths from the stage, and the media has been going after Elon Musk with a vengeance after his searing criticisms of the perilous AI takeover of the planet, the Illuminati has shown that they will not permit any disobedience.
By the way, “How did a 6 foot 4 Anthony Bourdain even hang himself with a bath robe belt anyway?”
