Poll: Most respondents in Armenia did not support the authorities` response to the incident with the Azerbaijani in Shaki, but supported the woman`s behavior

ArmInfo. More than half of respondents in Armenia negatively assessed the government's response to the intrusion of an Azerbaijani soldier into the home of a resident of Shaki in the Syunik region. This was reported by Aram Navasardyan, head of the consulting company MPG, while presenting the "Shaki-Shuki, Pash Kim Yan" survey by MPG.

As a reminder, in October of this year, an armed Azerbaijani soldier entered the home of a resident of Shaki. He wounded 38-year-old Ani Avetisyan and one of her three minor children. Ani is still in the hospital. She has already undergone several surgeries, and she still has several more to undergo.

When asked to evaluate the government's response, 50% of respondents said they had an absolutely negative opinion, another 13.2% said they had a somewhat negative opinion, 9.2% said they had an absolutely positive opinion, 11.1% said they had a somewhat positive opinion, and another 16.5% were undecided. Of those surveyed, 49.8% said they were familiar with the incident in detail, another 36.8% said they were somewhat familiar with what happened, 10.8% said they heard about it but didn't have the details, and another 2.7% said they were hearing about the incident for the first time.

At the same time, 86.6% of those surveyed fully supported the Shaki resident's actions in the current situation, another 6.3% were somewhat supportive, 1% were somewhat opposed, 1.8% were opposed, and 4.3% were undecided.

In this regard, to clarify how safe you feel in your place of residence 55.1% of respondents said they felt completely safe, another 20% said they felt somewhat safe, 9% said they felt somewhat unsafe, 15.3% said they felt completely unsafe, and 0.6% were undecided.
