Armenian army’s General Staff says its statement ‘not directed by anyone’

Panorama, Armenia

The General Staff of the Armenian Armed Forces on Thursday issued another statement after calling for the resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and his government.

"The statement issued by the top brass of the General Staff of the Armenian Armed Forces in the morning of February 25 was not directed by anyone or made under the pressure of anyone. It expresses the clear conviction and position of the generals and officers and only seeks to serve the salvation of the homeland at this crucial moment.

"We reaffirm our clear position once again," the statement read. 

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
