Samvel Karapetyan: After June 7, Pashinyan will not be able to make  any decisions

Samvel Karapetyan: After June 7, Pashinyan will not be able to make  any decisions

ArmInfo.RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan is doing everything possible to hide his failures. His greatest failure was in the army, in defense, and in the surrender of Artsakh. This was stated by Samvel Karapetyan, leader of the Strong Armenia party and candidate for prime minister, in an interview with  Armenia TV, speaking about the military parade held in Yerevan the previous day.

According to Karapetyan, it is impossible to even imagine the purpose  of this move to hold the parade. "I think it's more aimed at showing  off how he spent the eight billion dollars he put on display. Once in  power, we will purchase the most modern, the most important, the most  advanced equipment that will protect the people, that will saturate  the borders. Thanks to this equipment, the role of military personnel  on the borders will be reduced, since we will have a smart, properly  organized army," the party leader said.

He added that the main actors threatening the Armenian people with  war are Aliyev, Pashinyan, and the "Grey Wolves." "I assure you that  on the day Pashinyan is removed from power in Armenia, no one will  even try to threaten Armenia and the Armenian people with war. You  will see this immediately. We will conduct proper diplomacy, we will  have reliable guarantors, and no one will dare attack Armenia or the  Armenian people," he added.

When asked who could be Armenia's guarantor today, the head of the  "Strong" party Armenia responded:  "On a global scale, only major  superpowers are credible guarantors. I can name countries like the  United States, Russia, China, or the European Union. We will ensure  that we have a reliable guarantee so that no one can threaten our  people. How can we trust Aliyev and his guarantees? Pashinyan has  already shown that he is a weak, incompetent leader, a coward, and  afraid of Aliyev. We are not afraid of Aliyev; we will very quickly  bring peace to our country and a reliable, long-term peace."

He also referred to Pashinyan's statement in which he said that  Karapetyan should be in a penal institution.  "After June 7,  Pashinyan will not be able to make any decisions, especially  regarding my future. He had better think carefully about his future  and the future of his group. Regarding the resettlement of  Azerbaijanis to Armenia, people think we are conducting some kind of  election campaign on this issue.  This is the result of the  statements we hear every day from Aliyev and his assistants. If  there's nothing like that, I suggest Pashinyan announce tomorrow  morning that Aliyev cannot hold the festival in Nakhchivan on June  18-19," Samvel Karapetyan said.
