Pashinyan accused the opposition of preparing for a new war if he comes to power

The statements of the opposition forces about their alleged support for peace while at the same time wanting to reconsider its terms if they come to power actually mean declaring a new war. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced this on March 19.

"[Representatives of the opposition] say that they are supposedly not against peace, but if they come to power, they will begin to review the world. I want to state very bluntly and without doubt that this is a war!" the Armenian Prime Minister said at a briefing. The recording was published on the website of the agency Armenpress.

According to him, such political slogans are not an independent initiative of the internal opposition. He accused his opponents of acting only as translators of ideas coming from interested foreign individuals.
