It Turns Out the Authorities Failed to Take Necessary Actions Despite Having Significant Doubts About Resuming the War: Tigran Abrahamyan

This is already the second time that during my questioning of Prime Minister Pashinyan, the situation gets out of control and instead of responding to my question, the speaker "remembers" that there have been statements from our partner faction that need to be addressed. This was written by Tigran Abrahamyan, a member of the Armenian National Assembly's "I Have Honor" faction, in reference to the question-and-answer session held today between the Parliament and the Government.

"I am not even mentioning the fact that violating the regulations of the NA has become a common phenomenon for the authorities, as a result of which Pashinyan speaks as much as he wants while totally disregarding the established regulations. There is much to say about his unacceptable statements, but since Pashinyan was fleeing from my question with his frantic behavior, I will make a few brief observations. In fact, Pashinyan admitted that besides the factors that society, media, and experts recorded in the months preceding the war—Azerbaijan's preparation for war, starting with large-scale military exercises, planning with Turkey, and ending with mobilization, information and political preparation—the intelligence reported on September 25 about information regarding the war.

It turns out that in the presence of significant indicators suggesting the resumption of war, Pashinyan did not bring the state administration system from peace to war, did not prepare the armed forces to an appropriate level of combat readiness, and did not mobilize. Pashinyan admits that a large number of factors spoke about the resumption of the war; however, the authorities thought that this time it would not start again and did not implement necessary measures. The foundation of defeat in this war was laid on September 25 when the authorities, at minimum, had significant doubts about the resumption of war but did not take necessary actions," Abrahamyan wrote.
