"Prosperous Armenia" party calls on law enforcement to uncover facts  behind purported Artsakh video threats against Pashinyan

ArmInfo. The "Prosperous Armenia" party (PAP) strongly condemns any calls for violence, unconstitutional actions, or demonstrations, including those directed against or targeting the people of Artsakh. This statement was made by Iveta Tonoyan, press secretary for Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) leader Gagik Tsarukyan, in response to a scandalous video featuring masked men threatening Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in an alleged Artsakh dialect.

Tonoyan emphasized that such phenomena are entirely unacceptable and  urged law enforcement agencies to uncover all circumstances  surrounding the incident as quickly as possible and to hold those  responsible accountable.

"If the law enforcement system chooses to, it can achieve this, as it  possesses all the necessary resources and tools. Furthermore, it is  crucial to dispel the growing public suspicion regarding the  potential involvement of government circles in circulating this  video. At the same time, we are convinced that no video, regardless  of its content, can or should serve as a pretext for anti-Artsakh  propaganda, domestic public hostility, or hatred—especially on the  part of the current authorities," she added in her Facebook post.  Tonoyan underscored that the Armenian people today, more than ever,  need internal solidarity and responsible public dialogue.

Earlier, pro-government media outlets widely disseminated a video in  which armed, unidentified individuals speaking the Artsakh dialect  threatened Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and urged Armenian citizens  not to vote for him in the upcoming parliamentary elections. The  Investigative Committee of Armenia has launched a criminal case into  the matter.
