The Armenian authorities are attempting to create a political crisis in Artsakh using the "trap" they have set, according to MP Tigran Abrahamyan from the opposition With Honor faction.

In a Facebook post on Monday, the lawmaker stressed the need for all major forces in Artsakh to get back to the post-war period of political consultations to establish political stability in the country.

“Immediately after the war there was a preliminary consensus between the ruling force and the parliamentary opposition that the president and the ruling party acting within the framework of the Constitution and the laws of Artsakh should cede the key positions and spheres to several political forces, which in their turn would form a stable majority by coalition or other principle and lead the country not only out of the domestic political crisis but also out of the difficult situation created by the war.

“This scenario did not succeed, because the Armenian authorities intervened and created a "balance" in Artsakh, which could change at any moment according to their preferences.

“Using the "trap" they have set, the Armenian authorities are now trying to create an internal political crisis in Artsakh, which, thanks to the prudence and efforts of the parliamentary opposition, is not allowed at this stage.

“Pashinyan's government aims to provoke instability and crisis in Artsakh in order to deprive Artsakh of its entity. That is why these behind-the-scenes actions are accompanied by aggressive conduct of Pashinyan and his political/propaganda team, whose main goal is to show that Artsakh cannot remain Armenian and the struggle is senseless and to move the process to the field of Turkish-Azerbaijani logic,” Abrahamyan said.
