government to preempt any Russian

Recent events have highlighted how strained the bond between the two countries has grown. On June 17, Russian-Armenian billionaire Samvel Karapetian was arrested on charges of calling for the unlawful seizure of power. In Giragosian’s view, the arrest was “a move by the Armenian government to preempt any Russian interference” in next year’s parliamentary elections. But at the same time, it was more about pushing against Russian interest or influence within Armenia itself,” he added. “This man is a product of Moscow; he is widely perceived as pro-Putin.” Just days later, on June 25, Armenian authorities arrested Archbishop Bagrat Galstanian, a prominent cleric in the Armenian Apostolic Church, accusing him of plotting to overthrow the government. แทงบอลออนไลน์
