Almost three years after the Prime Minister of Armenia, as a result of the velvet revolution, became Nikol Pashinyan, a revolutionary situation in the country again. Offended by the disrespectful statement of the deputy chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Tiran Khachatryan, Pashinyan fired him. The General Staff answered Pashinyan with a call to resign. About how the first day of the open conflict between the authorities and the opposition was held, The Insider was told by the observer of the Par TV channel Arman Suleimanyan.
Early in the morning, the General Staff of Armenia made a statement that the government and Nikol Pashinyan, in particular, should be resigned, because they very often have recently taken anti -people's steps. It was about the fact that the deputy head of the General Staff, General Tyran Khachatryan yesterday commented on Pashinyan’s statement that the Iskander are effective only ten percent, and let the former presidents think that they had purchased at one time. Khachatryan said it was funny. And because of this phrase, Pashinyan decided to dismiss him.
The General Staff said that to blame the army in everything is already too much. Pashinyan decided to inflate the situation, curling that it was a military coup, and called on his supporters to reach the Republic Square at three in the afternoon. Here everything was spinning and twisted, Pashinyan said that he would also dismiss the head of the General Staff Onik Gasparyan. This statement has a background - on the third day of the war in Artsakh, Gasparyan told Pashinyan that we cannot fight in this situation, and everything needs to be done so that the war has stopped. The war lasted 44 days, the results are known to all. And for three months, Armenian society has been discussing why the Prime Minister did not listen to the head of the General Staff. Well, I did not listen and did not listen, the owner was a master.
In the afternoon, in two squares - the republics and freedom - which are located a kilometer from each other, each gathered his supporters, Nikol Pashinyan walked along the streets, accompanied by red berets. During the day, some former and current security forces joined the army. The current government and the opposition were measured by biceps, and by the evening the opposition moved to the parliament building to find a solution to the issue there.
And in the evening, all the channels had passed the news that Vladimir Putin spoke with Pashinyan. The conversation was not to heat up the situation.
After Putin’s conversation with Pashinyan, it became clear that the “wall to the wall” would not go, and the question should be somehow settled. But whether it will be possible to do it and how - probably, tomorrow will show. While supporters of the opposition said that they would not sleep and will break the tents in the park right in front of the parliament building. When there is an extraordinary meeting of the parliament, which was supposed to take place today, but never took place, it is incomprehensible. That was today in Yerevan.
