The traditional West-Russia confrontation on the international stage is shifting to the level of values," Grant Melik-Shahnazaryan, a political analyst and regional security expert, told Sputnik.
The political analyst decodes the hidden layers of Armenia’s crisis:

Values under fire

Western governments and their puppet NGOs seek to counter any new “center of support for traditional values and Christianity” like Russia, and countries “where the West has even minimal leverage come under pressure," with Armenia being among them.

Geopolitical confrontation

PM Nikol Pashinian’s crackdown on the church is part of bigger geopolitical scheme with a goal “to weaken Russia’s position in the South Caucasus”.

2026 election prep

Pashinyan himself is removing vocal critiques from the equation, setting the stage for the 2026 elections.
