Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev were in Brussels for a meeting organized by European Council President Charles Michel.

The Prosecutor General’s office has filed a lawsuit requesting the authorities confiscate over $47 million in properties and investments linked to Surik Khachatryan, the former governor of Armenia’s Syunik region.

Mikayel Arzumanyan, who served as Karabakh’s Defense Minister during the 2020 war, was detained in Karabakh on the order of Armenia’s Investigative Committee for “negligence” during the conflict.

The judge presiding over opposition activist Avetik Chalabyan’s case postponed making a decision on Chalabyan’s appeal without explanation.

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
