Azerbaijani MP: For West, Pashinyan is leader of military junta

Nikol Pashinyan found himself helpless on the BBC TV channel HardTalk program, and this is primarily an indicator of his unprofessionalism as a politician.

It is not the first time that Pashinyan has shown his incompetence as prime minister. So far, even on the most influential platforms in which he has participated together with the President of Azerbaijan Mr. Ilham Aliyev, Pashinyan reaching a stalemate was unable to make any convincing arguments about his country's policy of aggression. He even exposed himself due to illiteracy. Pashinyan repeated his failure at the Munich conference.
This time, the BBC's HardTalk program was difficult for Pashinyan. This once again showed that he has not yet matured as a politician. On the other hand, Pashinyan represents a country that he is obliged to report on Armenia's aggressive nature in any tribune.

The most crucial point here was that the presenter accused Pashinyan of concrete facts. BBC journalist Stephen Sackur also reminds Pashinyan that the Prime Minister's populistic absurd statement that "Karabakh is Armenia" is an open provocation to Azerbaijan. Thus, the world community was informed that Karabakh does not belong to Armenia. Pashinyan openly admitted that only 18 percent of the population of Nagorno-Karabakh were Armenians at the beginning of the conflict. But the contradiction is that, contrary to the format of peace talks, he insists on the phrase "Artsakh people" and speaks of the principle of self-determination of 18 percent of people. That is, there are many facts about Pashinyan's self-denial.

At the same time, Armenian Prime Minister's failure to fulfill any of the promises made during the "revolution", disparaging the people and dashing their high hopes for the Velvet Revolution, the fact that his calls for peace are just an imitation, accusing Pashinyan of using the escalation of the conflict to divert attention away from his government's botched response to the coronavirus pandemic and emphasizing that the most deplorable situation in the region in the fight against COVID-19 is observed in Armenia, in a word, the nature of the questions showed that the West no longer takes Pashinyan as a severe figure.

Even today's view suggests that Pashinyan, who is trying to present himself as a democrat for the West, is no different from Serzh Sargsyan, the junta's former leader.
