ArmInfo. Representatives of the Mother Armenia movement and party presented their position on foreign policy and domestic political processes in Armenia to Aaron Coe, Counselor of the Canadian Embassy in Armenia.

Coe presented Canada's position on democratic processes in Armenia.

As a reminder, on May 21, the Investigative Committee (IC) of Armenia announced the opening of a criminal case against Andranik Tevanyan for "high treason and espionage." Tevanyan is accused of transferring information containing state secrets to a foreign state for $622,000. On the night of May 24, Tevanyan was placed under two months' arrest by court order. The opposition figure's arrest occurred on the direct orders of current Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. Tevanyan himself called the investigation's claims absurd, noting that he resigned his parliamentary mandate in 2023 and, therefore, the Investigative Committee's allegations are groundless. On August 18, the investigation concluded and the case was sent to court, but Tevanyan remains in pretrial detention.
