Video reports showed local residents swearing at Pashinian, branding him a “capitulator” and “traitor” and demanding that he leave their community as he walked through Agarak, a small town on the Armenian-Iranian border. “You are the capitulators,” Pashinian shouted back. “We are going to sort this out as well. Dear people, I apologize to you for these types,” he said, appealing to other Agarak residents through a megaphone.

Pashinian Blames Other Officials For Wrong Claim About Russian Missile

Pashinian Blames Other Officials For ‘Wrong’ Claim About Russian Missile Մարտ 01, 2021 Կիսվել Տարածել Տպել Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian effectively retracted on Monday his claim that the Armenian army’s most advanced Russian-made missiles seriously malfunctioned during the recent war in Nagorno-Karabakh. Pashinian said last week that the Iskander missiles “did not explode or exploded by 10 percent.” He also suggested that the sophisticated missile system might be outdated. Pashinian’s remarks provoked a storm of criticism from Russian pro-government lawmakers and pundits. They accused him of incompetence and deceit. Russia’s Defense Ministry said on Thursday that it was “bewildered and surprised” by the remarks. The ministry spokesman, Igor Konashenkov, said the Armenian army did not fire any Iskander missiles during the six-week hostilities stopped by a Russian-brokered ceasefire on November 10.

Pashinian Ordered To Apologize To Jailed Ex-Minister

Տարածել Տպել A court in Yerevan has ordered Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian to apologize through his spokeswoman for her disparaging comments about Armenia’s jailed former Finance Minister Gagik Khachatrian and his fugitive sons. Khachatrian, who served as finance minister in former President Serzh Sarkisian’s administration, and his nephew went on trial in August one year after being arrested on corruption charges denied by them. Law-enforcement authorities brought separate corruption charges against his two sons earlier in 2020. The latter went into hiding in May and remain on the run. One of the sons, Gurgen Khachatrian, is the chairman of Ucom, a leading Armenian telecommunication operator controlled by the ex-minister’s extended family. In an April 2020 statement, Gurgen claimed that “high-ranking” officials have threatened to arrest him if the family refuses to sell its 77 percent stake in Ucom at a knockdown price.
