Armenia –

2021 was the first year after the [Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh)] war [in the fall of 2020], and during the year we had serious failures and serious achievements. The Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, stated this Wednesday during the National Assembly debates on the execution of the 2021 program of the government, adding that he will speak about these achievements and failures, and will make self-confessions.

"The key cornerstone of our achievements in 2021 was the snap parliamentary elections. The elections after the catastrophic war showed the resilience of our statehood and people, our will to have a statehood, increased Armenia's international standing, and demonstrated our commitment to democracy and democratic values.

By going to those elections, Armenia not only overcame the internal political crisis, but also, according to international institutions’ assessment, made a transition from among the countries with electoral authoritarianism to among the countries with electoral democracies," Pashinyan added, in particular.
