🔹 Not a condition but a demand: Baku is nullifying Pashinyan and Mirzoyan’s efforts to ease tensions
Final interviews:
🔹 With Ehsan Movahedian, an Iranian international relations expert: “Turkey or Israel: whom does Baku choose, and how will Tehran react?”
🔹 With Abhinav Pandya, Director of the Usanas Foundation and an Indian political analyst: “Could US-involved infrastructure in Syunik become a target for Iran?”
🔹 With Henry Theriault, an American historian of Armenian descent: “If Pashinyan wants to remain Prime Minister of Armenia, then Armenia must exist.”
