The person by the name of Nikol Pashinyan gave a confessional testimony in the National Assembly of Armenia yesterday. This is what Spokesperson of the Republican Party of Armenia Eduard Sharmazanov told reporters today, commenting on Pashinyan’s statement on the order ‘to not open fire’.

Sharmazanov recalled that Pashinyan had described the order as ‘state treason’.

“Pashinyan declared that if soldiers don’t open fire and don’t show resistance, that is state treason. This is the remark of a person who, during the Azerbaijanis’ invasion of Armenia’s sovereign territory, declared that there is no need to wage a war for 30% of Sev Lake. Also, this is the remark of a person who, on December 17-18, 2020, gifted Azerbaijan tens of thousands of kilometers of Armenia’s territory, and through a verbal agreement at that,” Sharmazanov stated.
