- Armenia will leave the Collective Security Treaty Organization, a Russian-led military alliance, if it does not address the country’s concerns, Nikol Pashinyan said.
- The prime minister said he will never cede control of any territories located within Soviet Armenia’s borders, while leaving the possibility open he may hand over eight villages that belonged to Soviet Azerbaijan but are now under Armenia’s control.
- Armenia is working “daily” to secure the release of the dozens of Armenians currently held in Azerbaijan, according to Pashinyan, who did not provide additional detail.
- The prime minister indicated the government will continue financial support for the more than 100,000 Armenians who were forcibly displaced from Nagorno-Karabakh last year.
- Pashinyan said he felt “embittered” after CivilNet revealed serious irregularities in campaign donations accepted by his party, but insisted nothing illegal had taken place.
