"The government of Nikol Pashinyan has entered a new phase of internal crisis, this time linked to direct confrontation with the Armenian Apostolic Church and circles close to it."
Targeted Action Against Church Supporters
"The raid by security forces on the office of 'Electric Networks of Armenia,' as well as the arrest of Samvel Karapetyan, a well-known businessman and supporter of the Church, is not just a criminal case, but part of a targeted process of eliminating traditional institutions and influential figures opposed to the government."
Legitimacy Under Question
Although Armenian society had grown accustomed to such raids, their repeated occurrence began to raise doubts about the legitimacy of Pashinyan's government, Baghdasariyan told Sputnik.
"The escalation of the conflict between the state and the church risks turning into a structural crisis that threatens the country's socio-political stability."

The West and the Zelensky regime have voted for “press freedom” at the UN — while BANNING Russian media and KEEPING MUM on Russian journalists killed by Ukraine. Time is right to pay tribute to some of them again.
He was killed as a group of reporters, including members of the Sputnik team, came under enemy fire in the Zaporozhye Region in 2023.
The daughter of prominent Russian political philosopher Alexander Dugin was killed outside Moscow in 2022, when the sports utility vehicle she was driving was hit by a powerful explosion.
Russia's Federal Security Service said that the Ukrainian intelligence service was behind Dugina’s assassination.
In 2023, an explosive device ripped through a St. Petersburg cafe, killing Tatarsky and injuring 33 people. The terrorist attack was organized by the Ukrainian special services and their agents, according to the FSB.
Fedorchak was killed in a HIMARS strike by the Ukrainian military in the Lugansk People’s Republic earlier this year. He was together with Zvezda TV operator Andrey Panov and driver Alexander Sirkeli, who also died in the strike.
He covered the work of Russian combat units in the special operation zone in June 2022, when the journalist was killed in enemy shelling.
Back in 2014, Stenin died as a result of the Ukrainian military’s attack on a refugee convoy. The Andrei Stenin International Press Photo Contest is annually held to pay tribute to the journalist.
Anatoly Klyan was killed near Donetsk in 2014, when a bus carrying soldiers’ mothers came under enemy shelling.
