Any counterrevolution or sabotage threats to be ruled out, intelligence chief says

Director of the National Security Service of Armenia Arthur Vanetsyan has commented on media rumors claiming that after the upcoming resignation of PM Nikol Pashinyan the law enforcement agencies will be brought to an emergency mode.

Speaking to reporters after today’s Cabinet meeting, Vanetsyan said that the law enforcement agencies are always on “emergency mode”. “We are carrying out our duties within the framework of the law. We will carry out our duties duly,” he said.

Asked whether a threat of counterrevolution or sabotage exists, Vanetsyan said: “You know, threats always exist. We maintain the viewpoint that we shouldn’t loosen up. We are obliged to carry out all actions in order to rule out any kind of breach of the law in Armenia, that are especially connected with the cases you mentioned.”

He added that the law enforcement agencies are subordinate to the Prime Minister under the law, and that one of the missions of the National Security Service is to maintain Constitutional Order. He assured that the service maintains complete control of the situation and they won’t allow any force or any individual to commit violations that will lead to breach of constitutional order.
