Armenian MP: This should be Pashinyan`s last year of power, as there  is nowhere else to yield

ArmInfo.The time has come to remove Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan from power: this year should be  the last for his government, as there is no more room for new concessions or challenges. Non-partisan MP Taguhi Tovmasyan stated this in a conversation with journalists in the Armenian parliament on April 25.

The MP noted that one should not wait for the 2026 elections to  implement this step, noting that she considers the "I Have  Honor"  faction's impeachment initiative to be one of the legal ways to  remove the current prime minister. However, Tovmasyan added that  there is currently no single candidate for the post of prime  minister, which complicates the implementation of this initiative.   "We can start the impeachment process right now, but we need votes to  complete this process, in addition to this, at the moment the "I Have  Honor" faction does not have candidates," Tovmasyan said.

Speaking about the likelihood of Armenian society supporting this  initiative, the MP assured that there are practically no political  forces in the country that enjoy the people's trust. According to  her, polls show that 70% of Armenians are indifferent to the  political processes in the country. Touching upon the "velvet  revolution" of 2018, Tovmasyan noted that many of those who then  advocated for change now realize the destructiveness of the actions  of the current prime minister and the mistake of this revolution. She  admitted that she herself was among those who wanted the removal of  then Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan.  Tovmasyan expressed her  conviction that the current prime minister has long been coordinating  his actions with the Turkish-Azerbaijani tandem.
