Podcast appearances and mentions of Nikol Pashinyan

Groong Week in Review - June 8, 2025In this Week in Review episode, Groong hosts unpack a tense week in Armenian politics and society. Prime Minister Pashinyan intensifies his attacks on the Armenian Church, while the ruling Civil Contract party faces mounting criticism over corruption and nepotism. The opposition RPA nominates a symbolic candidate for prime minister amid an unlikely impeachment effort. Meanwhile, Armenia's economy shows cracks beneath reported growth, Georgia tightens trade routes, and demographic warnings grow starker as birthrates plummet and emigration continues. The episode also touches on global shifts, including the Ukraine war and Poland's presidential pivot, framing Armenia's challenges in a broader geopolitical context.TopicsUkraine's War, Poland's Pivot?Status Check on the EconomyRPA Names PM CandidateArmenia's Demographic ThreatsThe Kitchen SinkGuestHrant MikaelianHostsHovik ManucharyanAsbed BedrossianEpisode 444 | Recorded: June 9, 2025SHOW NOTES: https://podcasts.groong.org/444VIDEO: https://youtu.be/ZeOxwQm2DJ8#ArmeniaPolitics #ArmeniaEconomy #ukrainewar #armenianchurch #PopulationDeclineSubscribe and follow us everywhere you are: linktr.ee/groong

That's in addition to Ruben Vardanyan, the former head of Karabakh's separatist government, who was charged with financing terrorism after his arrest while fleeing through the Lachin corridor.
