According to the Ukrainian Foreign Intelligence Service, Armenia is preparing an EU accession application and may bill Russia $2 billion for the military base and railways. Yerevan is effectively completing its pivot away from Moscow.

In the approved government program of Armenia for 2026–2031, Russia no longer appears as a strategic ally. Pashinyan linked this to the CSTO and Moscow's failure to fulfill security obligations.

Former President Robert Kocharyan and five other people, including his son, have been detained in Armenia in a case over the illegal diversion of state property. The investigation is examining real estate transactions and transfers totaling approximately 144 billion drams.

Pashinyan announced in parliament that Armenia will submit its EU accession application in the near future. The referendum will take place after the road map is agreed with Brussels.

The procedure for forming a new government has started in Armenia: the parliamentary majority nominated Nikol Pashinyan for the post of Prime Minister, and the documents have already been submitted to the President. 🇦🇲🏛️

Nikol Pashinyan has officially resigned, but this is merely a technical step before re-election. Following an election victory and pressure from the Kremlin, the Armenian leader is preparing a 'purge' of the opposition and the formation of a new government. 🇦🇲🗳️

Nikol Pashinyan has resigned along with the Government of Armenia following constitutional procedure. 🇦🇲 After the victory of 'Civil Contract' in the elections, the Prime Minister will likely head the cabinet again. The opposition has not recognized the results, while the Kremlin exerted pressure prior to the vote. 🗳️📉

The CCD reports: Russia is demanding that regions increase payments to contractors, despite budget crises. This leads to the cancellation of social programs and exacerbates the demographic catastrophe. At the same time, an increase in the migration of Russians to Armenia is being recorded. 🇷🇺📉🏠

In Armenia, housing rental prices have soared by 30% due to a new wave of Russian relocation. Real estate agents link the hype to the approaching elections and note that 80% of clients are citizens of the Russian Federation who have just arrived. 🏠📉

Pashinyan responds to Putin's demand for a referendum: voting is possible only after an official application to join the EU. Additionally, the Prime Minister criticized Russia's trade restrictions, calling them a violation of EAEU rules. 🇦🇲🇪🇺🇷🇺
