Colonel Senor Hasratyan, a former spokesman of the Artsakh Defense Army, took to Facebook late on Tuesday to denounce caretaker Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s statements during his election campaign rallies.

“Nikol's impudence has already reached its peak. Lacking intelligence, this maniac is persistently leading the country to internal and external conflicts. The only way to stop him is to remove him [from office] and then isolate him by any means,” he said.

Hasratyan warned that Pashinyan’s further involvement in public affairs is fraught with “more terrible consequences than we are facing today.” He blamed Pashinyan for turning Armenia from a “once regional player into a bargaining chip” for other countries.

“And all this because of one person ... Armenians have lost their self-control and, like a lost herd, go to where the number one scum of all times in Armenia leads them…

“Folks, he is really a gravedigger, who digs a grave for everything that we had and did not have, who is ready to bury everything that is not only valuable to dignified Armenians, but also the meaning of their life for his personal benefit (and in fact, for nothing),” Hasratyan said.
