Argishti Kiviryan on the Government–Church Crisis in Armenia

,
Political analyst Argishti Kiviryan, in an interview with news.am, assesses Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s actions toward the Armenian Apostolic Church (AAC). He addresses several key issues: the political psychology of the authorities, the ideological transformation of the state, regional risks, and processes around Armenia that, in his view, are being orchestrated from outside.

If the collapse of industry deprived Armenia of its material foundation, the educational reforms launched by Minister Ashot Bleyan in the mid-1990s dealt a blow to the country’s human capital - the very resource that ensures long-term resilience. It was, in essence, a blow to the nation’s ability to reproduce itself.

Artur Khachikyan: “Armenia Is Rapidly Turning into a Second Karabakh”

,
In an interview with New.am, Dr. Artur Khachikyan, a Stanford PhD in Political Science, issued stark warnings about the current state of Armenian statehood. His comments were prompted by reports that Armenia has begun purchasing oil from Azerbaijan - a step the authorities present as a sign of a “new era of peace” and the start of economic cooperation. Khachikyan, however, does not view this as economic diversification but as part of a systemic process that places the country in strategic dependence on Baku.

When the Soviet Union collapsed, Armenia inherited not only a flag and an emblem, but also something that seems almost unimaginable today: industrial giants, scientific-research institutes, high-capacity design bureaus — an entire industrial civilization created through decades of intensive work. In the hands of farsighted reformers, it could have become the foundation of a new economy, a launchpad to the future. Yet 1992 and 1993 entered history for very different reasons.

Ara Harutyunyan: The Crisis of Armenia’s State Symbols and Systemic Flaws in Its Thinking Model

Publicist, intellectual, and scholar Ara Harutyunyan was a guest on a recent episode of Boris Murazi’s program, where he raised a series of acute issues regarding public consciousness in Armenia, perceptions of the authorities, the perception of the authorities, spiritual role, and historical responsibility.

With the consolidation of the Armenian Pan-National Movement (APNM), the country entered a decade that - as poet Paruyr Sevak would say - “gives birth to heroes and destroys them without remorse.” Reforms, the struggle for statehood, and diplomatic breakthroughs unfolded on the surface, while behind the scenes processes were taking shape that would later be described as the “dark anatomy of the ’90s.”

How the Current Catastrophic Situation in Armenia Began: From Romanticized Independence to Systemic Vulnerability – Part 1

,
Catastrophes do not occur by accident - they ripen over years, sometimes over decades, through unnoticed decisions, concessions, and mistakes that later become fatal. Today, as Armenia is living through perhaps the most dramatic period of its modern history, we return to the very beginning to understand where exactly the point of no return was reached. As part of the project we announced earlier, we are launching a series of articles that will reconstruct step by step the political, geopolitical, and human logic of events: from the first days of the late-1980s rallies to the decisions that led the country to its current state.

The Public Tribunal Project is launching a large-scale publication series - research that traces the sequence of events, decisions, and missteps that gradually and almost imperceptibly led to the tragic reality Armenia faces today.

Secrets of the Archives: What Is Nikol Pashinyan Hiding?

,
A recently released archive of letters and meeting minutes has revealed previously concealed aspects of the Karabakh negotiation process, delivering yet another shock to the public. Despite claiming to present the full story, the government continues to publish highly selective and one-sided documents. Critics point to the deliberate omission of a crucial document signed in 2001 in Key West, which proposed transferring several regions surrounding Artsakh to Azerbaijan in exchange for establishing a transport corridor for Armenia. Such selective handling of historical records casts serious doubt on the credibility of the official narrative.

The Servants of Traitors: Part 3 – Ruben Rubinyan, a Turkish Agent?

,
In political life, almost nothing happens by accident, especially when a sequence of seemingly unrelated events begins to form a single, troubling pattern. Although there is no indisputable proof that Rubinyan is a “Turkish agent,” the combination of circumstances — the location of his internship, his rapid rise through the ranks, and the persistent lack of clear answers — continues to raise suspicions that he may still maintain ties with Turkish special services.
