Sharmazanov: If we want to prevent the loss of our state, we must  take  steps to do so

ArmInfo. If we want to stop the process of losing our state, we must take some steps, as stated by  former Vice Speaker of the Armenian Parliament and RPA member Eduard Sharmazanov in a conversation with journalists, touching upon the impeachment process against Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.

Sharmazanov pointed out that impeachment is currently one of two ways  to remove the current prime minister. According to him, another  option could be waiting for elections, but he believes it would be  inappropriate to delay, as Pashinyan may have time to cause even  greater harm to the state during this year.  When discussing the  proposed candidate for impeachment, the RPA member urged to focus  on  the process rather than  individuals. He highlighted that that  according to the Constitution of Armenia, a candidate is required  to  initiate the impeachment process,  which is why the "I Have Honor"  faction nominated David Hambardzumyan (head of the Masis community in  the Ararat region and a member of the RPA Council - ed.). Sharmazanov  also admitted that this choice had initially sparked doubts among the  opposition, but he expressed confidence that the process has been set  in motion, a candidate has been chosen, and impeachment is now  on  the agenda.
