 Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan does not rule out a change in the situation in the relations between Armenia and the CSTO, if Belarus leaves the organization or the president of that country, Alexander Lukashenko, apologizes to the Armenian people.

Pashinyan announced this in his speech from the podium of the parliament. "Can anything change in relation to the CSTO? Theoretically, it cannot be ruled out if, for example, Belarus decides to withdraw from the CSTO or the President of Belarus says words of apology or explanation to the people of Armenia that will be acceptable to the people of Armenia. Pashinyan said.

Earlier, the prime minister reminded that the president of Belarus, a CSTO member, stated that he participated in the preparation of the 44-day war, encouraged, believed and wished for the victory of Azerbaijan. The Prime Minister said that after that he is not going to discuss the issue with him in the CSTO format. Pashinyan also stated that he and no official representatives of the Republic of Armenia will visit Belarus as long as Alexander Lukashenko is the president of that country. Armenia has frozen participation in the CSTO. RA Ambassador to Belarus Razmik Khumaryan was summoned to Yerevan for consultations.

Only the people of the sovereign Republic of Armenia can change the government in Armenia. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced this in the National Assembly.

"The representatives of the feudal elite of Nagorno-Karabakh, who were standing on their feet drinking toasts and accusing us of treason, surrendered in two hours. These are the people who accused us of treason. Those same people are now distributing 5 thousand drams to bring people to Baghramyan Avenue. 

It is no small thing that Artsakh was handed over in two hours, the weapons of several billion dollars, acquired at the cost of the hardships of the people of the Republic of Armenia, were handed over to Azerbaijan in an orderly, well-oiled condition ," Pashinyan emphasized.

According to him, now they have come to Armenia and want to make a change of power here, and as they handed over Nagorno-Karabakh, they will also hand over Armenia. 

"But I want to tell the clerical-feudal elite clearly. You cannot change the government in Armenia, because you are simply powerless in front of the legitimacy born from the people and fed by the people. Only the people of the sovereign Republic of Armenia can change the government in Armenia whenever they want. If he wants to, he will do it, if he doesn't want to, he won't do it," concluded Pashinyan.
