The participants of the intra-governmental discussions told us that there were also people in the ruling wing who were happy about the fact that the Communist Party did not get a constitutional majority in the June 7 elections. Some were happy that these results would not give Pashinyan the opportunity to take drastic measures against Russia, others for purely personal reasons, for example, Yerevan Mayor Tigran Avinyan. The point is that the CP was sure that Avinyan would change after the elections.
If they had a constitutional majority, they would organize new elections in a number of communities, including in Yerevan, because "swords would be cut left and right." However, they were shocked by these results, and it is obvious that the plans will change, because the shaky government with reduced legitimacy does not provide an opportunity to take such risky steps. It can destroy the government from within.
