Pashinyan warned his opponents against attempts to overthrow the government
Baku/16.09.23/Turan: Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan warned his opponents against attempts to overthrow the government.
"I will advise those who talk about the shooting, those who talk about the capture of Yerevan with blood, to reconsider their vocabulary and not to tempt fate. This is not 1999 for you and your godfathers, and certainly not October, and certainly not the 27th," Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said on September 15 at the final rally of the ruling Civil Contract party within the framework of the election campaign for the elections to the Council of Elders of Yerevan.
"Come on, try your luck, and a rich asphalt diet awaits you, try your luck so much, lick the asphalt and curbs so much in order to fulfill and exceed the five-year plan of sanitizing Yerevan in one week," the Armenian service of Radio Liberty quotes Pashinyan.
Nikol Pashinyan did not specify to whom his statements were addressed.
The other day, in an interview with journalists, the head of the opposition faction "I have the Honor" Hayk Mamidzhanyan said: "Yerevan will change with my, your sweat, then the citizens standing outside, patriots, and if Pashinyan does something stupid, then with blood too."
On October 27, 1999, five armed men broke into the meeting room of the National Assembly of Armenia Parliament and opened fire on the deputies and members of the government sitting in the presidium and the hall.
As a result of the attack, Chairman of the National Assembly Karen Demirchyan, Prime Minister Vazgen Sargsyan, Vice Speakers Yuri Bakhshyan and Ruben Miroyan, Minister of Operational Affairs Leonard Petrosyan, deputies Armenak Armenakyan, Mikael Kotanyan, Henrik Abrahamyan were killed.
The terrorists have stated that their goal is to change the government. The next day, they surrendered after negotiations between the head of the terrorist group Nairi Hunanyan and the then President of Armenia Robert Kocharian.
According to some reports, the terrorist attack was staged by external forces to disrupt the alleged signing of a peace document between Armenia and Azerbaijan at the upcoming OSCE summit in Istanbul. ---06B---
