The Strong Armenia party has responded to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, saying his recent statements reflect growing political pressure and concern over his standing.

The party spokesperson, Marianna Ghahramanyan, reacted to Pashinyan’s remarks in a Facebook post.

“In response to inquiries from a number of media outlets regarding Nikol Pashinyan’s desperate statements, we fully understand him. Nikol Pashinyan clearly sees and understands what is happening.

Recent sociological surveys show that in about two months he will leave office. His reaction is quite natural: Pashinyan is in panic, and he has reasons for that... If he needs help, we are ready to assist,” she stated.

Earlier, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said businessman Samvel Karapetyan could go live on air to express his views, adding that “both oligarchs are weak — both in analytical thinking and vocabulary.”
