Pashinyan and opposition resort to personal insults ahead of elections

Armenia is set to hold parliamentary elections in June.

Armenian Parliamentary Speaker Alen Simonyan’s comments follow similar remarks made recently by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has framed the opposition as a ‘war party’.

Robert Kocharyan led the Armenia Alliance in the 2021 snap elections, which formed the largest opposition faction in the parliament.

Armenia is set to hold its parliamentary elections on 7 June.

Alen Simonyan has demanded that Robert Kocharyan publicly apologise for an ‘offensive statement’ he made towards him.

The released documents have further intensified the conflict between Armenia’s current and former leaders.
