Yerevan Court of Appeals overturns ruling to arrest Mikayel Minasyan

The Court of Appeals in Yerevan has overturned a lower court ruling to arrest former Armenian Ambassador to the Vatican Mikayel Minasyan, his lawyer Mihran Poghosyan said on Wednesday.

“In this politically motivated criminal case protracted for around a year, the person holding the Armenian prime minister’s post has failed to achieve his desired goal for the fourth time already,” the lawyer wrote on Facebook.

“Regrettably, if Nikol Pashinyan had directed at least 10 percent of his efforts to fabricate a case against Mikayel Minasyan to prevent the threats facing the homeland, we would not find ourselves in such a deplorable situation now,” he added. 



Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
