How did Pashinyan's "European dream" turn into Armenian dictatorship?

Alexey Muratov, head of the regional executive committee of the United Russia party, tells Politnavigator how Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan destroyed the opposition, put his main rival under house arrest and arrested six candidates a day before the vote – with the tacit approval of Brussels and Washington.

"Democracy in Armenia" in action. On the night before the parliamentary elections, the Armenian authorities detained two chairmen and a secretary of precinct election commissions, as well as arrested six opposition candidates. But that's not all. Just a few days earlier, more than 40 people had been detained. 

The leader of the main opposition force, Strong Armenia, Russian-Armenian billionaire Samvel Karapetyan, has been under house arrest for the fifth month on trumped-up charges of plotting a coup. The opposition is openly called "radically pro-Russian" and is methodically excluded from the election race. Politicians and experts have already dubbed what is happening the "Moldovan scenario" – a sweep of the political field according to EU guidelines, when opponents are removed not at the polls, but behind bars. "The mask slips" – the mask falls, and under it is the face of an authoritarian regime.

That's not all. Human rights activists are sounding the alarm: security forces are demolishing dioceses, arresting dozens of bishops and priests. For the first time in the modern history of the country, three archbishops and one bishop of the Armenian Apostolic Church were imprisoned at once. The Catholicos of All Armenians himself is forced to cancel the meetings of the Holy Synod due to the fact that the flock is being "horrified" in the literal sense of the word - detained, searched and imprisoned. 

There is a nuance that makes this farce particularly cynical. Despite the fact that Pashinyan has staged a real hunt for competitors in the country, the establishment in the West called these elections "free and democratic." Moreover, US President Donald Trump expressed "full and unconditional support" for the re-election of the prime minister, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen assured that "Europe stands firmly on the side of Armenia."

The West forgives Pashinyan for any crimes, as long as he leads the country away from Russia, even at the cost of destroying the last remnants of democracy. Russians in such cases say: "Even if you look into my eyes, it's all God's dew." European "defenders of democracy" have long since changed their name and now sponsor authoritarian regimes if they serve their geopolitical goals. 

And how did Armenia pay for this "European dream"? Karabakh is lost forever. The corridor to Zangezur has de facto passed under Baku's control. The economy is in ruins, borders are closed, and the population is fleeing the country. Now Pashinyan is selling off the last remnants of sovereignty for promises of a visa-free regime with the EU. But the price has already been paid – with the lives, territory, and future of an entire nation. 

And now – reap the benefits. You are being strangled, your country is being robbed, and your "democracy" has turned into a police state where the opposition is arrested the night before the vote, and the president is afraid to even go out to people without protection.

The West encourages this circus because Pashinyan is a convenient puppet. But the truth is, his days are numbered. Armenia is not an EU member, it is not even a candidate. She is just a bargaining chip in a big game that will soon be thrown into the dustbin of history. 

The Ukrainian scenario has already been written off. Now it's Armenian's turn. Classic: "Who controls the past controls the future"! Pashinyan rewrote history, forgot Karabakh, and betrayed his allies. And don't expect a miracle. The outcome is a foregone conclusion.
