The former Soviet Prime Minister of Armenia, who had been virtually defeated in a military clash over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh last year and was forced to resign from the opposition, resigned and held a parliamentary election in June to question the public. I went and expressed my intention to reappoint.

Armenia was virtually defeated last year in a military clash with neighboring Azerbaijan over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh, and Prime Minister Pashinyan was urged by Russian opposition to resign responsibly.



In response, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said on the 25th, "The future of the country should be decided by the people by fair elections." I showed my thoughts.



In addition, when the ruling party won the election, he said, "I will be a candidate for prime minister," and expressed his intention to reappoint.



It seems that the reason behind Mr. Pashinyan's resignation this time is to ease the conflict between the ruling and opposition parties by showing the path to the parliamentary elections.



Also, on the 24th, President Biden of the United States recognized the problem of the murder of a large number of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire of Turkish descent as "genocide" = genocide, which was favorably accepted in Armenia and is closer to the West. Some say it will be a tailwind for the ruling party in the election.
