Nikol Pashinyan
Yerevan/25.02.21/Turan: Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan dismissed the head of the General Staff Onik Gasparyan. He said this, going live on Facebook immediately after a joint statement by high-ranking Armenian military officials demanding the Prime Minister's resignation.
"The situation is very difficult. You know that I made a decision to remove the chief of the General Staff and his first deputy from office. I will announce the reason for these decisions on the square. Now the most important task is to preserve civil and people's power," he said.
Pashinyan said that he took full responsibility for what happened in the war in Karabakh, but now there is a situation in which the high-ranking military has some questions from society, and "these questions cannot be avoided" (why the Iskander missiles did not work).
The Prime Minister believes that some generals need to be held accountable for this, and therefore they decided to call on him to resign. -02D-
