Pashinyan’s illegal and destructive plan has little chance of success. The Catholicos will probably refuse to resign. Pashinyan’s only remaining option would be to send his armed security agents to arrest the Catholicos on trumped-up charges. If the Catholicos is arrested, no replacement should be elected, allowing Karekin II to run the Church from his prison cell. What an embarrassment for the first Christian nation in the world!
An International troupe of Theatrical and Circus Show arrived at Zvartnots International Airport – a large-scale project that will open this autumn the first premiere season of Tashir Arena, built on the site of the legendary Yerevan Circus.
However, on July 14, Pashinyan’s spokesperson, Nazeli Baghdasaryan, contradicted both Safaryan and Badalyan: “Such a proposal is not acceptable to the Republic of Armenia … [which] has not discussed, and is not considering, outsourcing control over its sovereign territory to any third party.” She added: “Armenian law only allows leasing of agricultural land for farming, rendering Ambassador [Barrack]’s proposal legally unfeasible.”

“In order also to reach out to peace, we have to make a distinction between freedom of expression deprivation in a national framework or in an international framework, a national framework, it depends, always by the government. So it’s a decision what kind of behaviors or statements are denied and what not. So what we can do in this case is to create dialog with institutions and also create dialog between international organizations and governments, or between governments.”
The defendants have two paths forward. They can wait for a future, independent Armenian court to restore their rights once Pashinyan leaves office. Or, if convicted, they can appeal the verdicts to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). Karapetyan’s legal team announced last week that they are already preparing such an appeal to the ECHR, hoping the court in Strasbourg will overturn the unjust Armenian ruling. The only problem is that ECHR proceedings can take years, unless it is handled on an emergency basis.
