ArmInfo.Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan clarified Yerevan's position regarding the possible  displacement of residents of Nagorno-Karabakh to the Republic of Armenia.

"The evacuation of Armenians from Nagorno Karabakh is possible only  if the current situation continues and their residence there becomes  impossible," Pashinyan said on September 22 at a government meeting.   "We are ready and continue preparations. This is a coordinated  position with our partners in Nagorno- Karabakh: Our plan is not  to prevent the emigration of Armenians from Nagorno Karabakh. We must  do everything through our actions so that our compatriots, residents  of Nagorno-Karabakh, have the opportunity to live in their homes  without fear, with dignity and safety," Pashinyan said. The key focus  of the discussion at the UN Security Council meeting, around which,  according to the Prime Minister, there was a consensus, was precisely  this.

 

At the same time, according to Pashinyan, a hybrid war is being waged  against Armenia, primarily in the information field. In the context  of the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh, one should be as careful as  possible and be in constant contact with society so that citizens  have confidence in official information, he noted.  He recalled his  yesterday's statement about the absence of a direct threat to the  civilian population of NK.  Today, as he pointed out, this assessment  is slightly more positive. However, due to the dynamics of the  situation, it may change. In addition, Pashinyan noted, this does not  mean that individual incidents cannot take place. This is a general  situation.

"We must continue active cooperation with the media so that people  receive the correct information," Nikol Pashinyan said.
