Russia Has Issued an Ultimatum — Are We Playing Games? The People Will Pay the Heavy Price

What concerns Nikol Pashinyan now is how to secure the six missing parliamentary mandates. This was stated on the air of 168 TV by Davit Ananyan, a member of the governing council of the “Wings of Unity” party. He noted that Pashinyan could face serious problems in parliament if a referendum were to be held and, therefore, would avoid such a process at all costs.


Addressing Armenian-Russian relations, Davit Ananyan said that breaking away from Russia is Pashinyan’s political commitment, the price for remaining in power, and the cost of services rendered to him that he must pay.


“Russia has dictated its agenda, but Armenia still has nothing to say. The Russians have not accepted the reproduction of this government, they did not congratulate Pashinyan, and they are moving toward confrontation. Russia is interested in only one thing: what does the Armenian people think? Russia has issued an ultimatum not to the government, but to the Armenian people,” Ananyan stated.
