When the Minister of Internal Affairs says that new standards for the use of force will be introduced in RA, by which the police will be guided, let me tell you what it will be.
it is granting/expanding the powers to use harsh force, including lethal force, to the National Guard, which is nothing but the so-called personal army of the RA Prime Minister.
For years, RA has been cooperating with the USA at all stages in the formation of the Guard.
To make what I said clearer, the change in the norm for the use of force will be approximately this. if a policeman/guardian in any case (from everyday life to a political rally), including during protests, civil actions, or, say, a rally, makes a request to a citizen once, and if the citizen does not fulfill it immediately for any reason, the guard is authorized to immediately fire a weapon apply.
This is also an American standard.
With this, RA will become a full-fledged police state, which the current Prime Minister of RA has been going to for years, when he realized that none of the external players will provide guarantees of their personal security.
By the way, the National Guard will be fully operational from September 2025.
Moreover, if the amendments to the electoral code proposed by the government are accepted, and I see no reason why they will not be accepted, it will be practically impossible to change the government in RA.
Remember, a person who knows that he is a state traitor, a foreign agent and a servant, will do everything to stay in power for life. it is very logical and obvious.
What the government should have done to solve the problem years ago, and by the way, it could, it will no longer be able to do. this will also be a good excuse. By the way, it is practically impossible to change the government through elections and this is a very obvious reality.
By the way, one more thing and that's it. The current authorities of RA aim for a huge emigration from RA, so that they can easily keep the country under their control, the resistance will not be sharp during the expected influx of Azerbaijanis. Few people - few problems.
It is for this reason that such a state of living conditions and institutional chaos are ensured, by the way, some of them are also at the direct request of foreign states.
I should say that the level of resistance of the Armenian community has dropped indescribably with the research of foreign organizations and all the necessary steps are being taken in this regard, including to ensure the necessary conditions for them in the non-governmental camp.
There is a decision regarding RA, and it is being implemented right now. but there is definitely an opportunity to change the situation, and it has nothing to do with any of the forces known to you.
In the Eurasian region and North Caucasus, personal relations and trust are much more important than any contracts.
They allegedly did not understand this in RA.
Such things. I wish you high spirits.
