🇦🇲 ☦️ Armenia's government enters new crisis phase in clash with church

💬Hovik Baghdasariyan, an expert on Caucasus affairs – to Sputnik:

"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."

🚨 Ukraine's terror: Western media mutes deaths of Russian journalists

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.

🔹 Rostislav Zhuravlev, Sputnik war correspondent
He was killed as a group of reporters, including members of the Sputnik team, came under enemy fire in the Zaporozhye Region in 2023.

🔹 Darya Dugina, journalist

Russia's Federal Security Service said that the Ukrainian intelligence service was behind Dugina’s assassination.

🔹 Vladlen Tatarsky, war correspondent
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.

🔹 Izvestia daily correspondent Alexander Fedorchak
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.

🔹 Sergey Postnov, Russian National Guard press service employee
He covered the work of Russian combat units in the special operation zone in June 2022, when the journalist was killed in enemy shelling.

🚨 BRICS is a threat to the dollar, US hegemony: Trump right to FEAR it 💬 “Clearly the US dollar is under threat from BRICS just by the fact that these countries trade among themselves in national currencies rather than the dollar,” IR analyst Gilbert Doctorow…
🗣 Trump says all BRICS members to pay 10% tariff on exports to US

💬 "If they're a member of BRICS, they're going to have to pay a 10% tariff just for that one thing," Trump said during a cabinet meeting.


Trump also stated that he believes BRICS was created to "degenerate" the US dollar and ultimately eliminate it as a reserve currency.

Сooperation within BRICS has never been and will never be aimed at third countries, Moscow recently said.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that BRICS has been shaping the new order, replacing the outdated neoliberal model built on neocolonial practices with multipolarity.
