ArmInfo.. Armenian authorities are concerned about the absence of congratulations from Europe and the US on Serzh Sargsyan's premiership
According to ArmInfo sources, the leading elite connects this fact with the opposition rallies held in Armenia, considering it as a demonstrative manifestation of Western support for the activists. "It would be primitive to consider the events taking place in the country exclusively in the domestic political perspective, and geopolitical factors play an important role here - it is no coincidence that the situation in Armenia is aggravated by the backdrop of the escalation of the Syrian crisis, but if the opposition movement gets bigger, Russia will intervene a new hotbed of destabilization is not profitable, especially in an allied country, "the source said.
The source also admitted that the crowded rallies were somewhat unexpected for the authorities. "Today there is a deadlock, Nikol Pashinyan himself does not know what to do next, how many people can be led along the streets, on the other hand he can not dissolve people and simply say so go home," he said.
The source also admitted that the authorities are dissatisfied with the broad support of the Diaspora to the opposition movement.
