Armenia – Aug 23 2022

There are three scenarios for leaving power, but today we are going to realize only one of them, namely a conscious resignation, former Armenian Ambassador to Poland and former head of the Constitutional Court Office Edgar Ghazaryan said during today's rally demanding the resignation of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan at the Republic Square in Yerevan.

He recalled that more than 40 officers of the Armenian Armed Forces, the Armenian Apostolic Church, Academy of Science, YSU Scientific Council, more than 100 lawyers, numerous political parties and NGOs made such an appeal in 2021.

"But Pashinyan did not resign. Instead, he organized a mock election by creating a criminal group together with Armenian President Armen Sargsyan, Prosperous Armenia party faction head Gagik Tsarukyan, and Bright Armenia party head Edmon Marukyan, knowingly failed the government formed in 2018, organized the mock election, and illegally seized power in Armenia. Let no one think that there were elections in 2021, it was a power grab. Pashinyan will also be tried for this. He is the only Prime Minister in Armenia's history who remained in office after resigning. Pashinyan has done this several times," Ghazaryan noted.

He expressed his belief that Pashinyan is using power in Armenia to serve the interests of his enemies.

"Our actions will be exclusively legitimate," the oppositionist concluded.

“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
