ArmInfo. At this stage, Armenia is experiencing the most severe political crisis throughout its modern history. A similar opinion was expressed to ArmInfo by ex-Artsakh Foreign Minister, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Arman Melikyan.
"To our great regret, both the pro-government group and the multi-party, demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Pashinyan, the opposition group were unable to jointly come up with ideas for reaching a consensus solution to overcome this crisis. performance in a state of confusion, disappointment and disgust, "he stressed.
Melikyan believes that against the background of the instinctive distance of the Armenian society from both sides of this political farce, which is due to its unwillingness to become a part of this action, the relatives and friends of the dead, wounded and missing servicemen are gradually gaining political weight. And if at some stage they put forward people capable of political leadership, this particular segment of the Armenian society, formed following the results of the second Artsakh war, can have a significant impact on the internal political processes.
According to the diplomat, in today's Armenia it is the people who were directly affected by the results of the war who can and have every right to make real demands against the authorities. And they are the real resource capable of establishing law and order in the country. Meanwhile, the current situation in the country, according to his estimates, looks very menacing, which is especially evident in Syunik. "I am convinced that regardless of any external factors, the future of Syunik is determined by the behavior and decisions made by official Yerevan. There are, of course, enough external stakeholders in the latest impulses around Syunik, Artsakh and the region as a whole. These are Russia, Turkey, Iran: In general, I am inclined to predict radical changes in our region. And I think that this process has just started, "Melikyan summed up.
