A drumroll presaging Prime Minister Pashinyan's departure has only grown louder since Armenia's perceived defeat in that last umpteenth Nagorno-Karabakh war begun on September 27, 2020.
Chomping at the bait offered by an enemy 3x stronger was a fool's gambit. A simple reading of Armenia's (astonishingly flavorful and delicate) tea leaves would have foretold to even the softest head a dreary outcome.
But everyone's blood was up - and it's still stirring. A head now has to roll.
The Armenian Apostolic Church, an astonishing 16 political parties, even elements of Pashinyan's own armed forces, now unite as one voice demanding Pashinyan's skin. So, sheepishly, Pashinyan gave a bit off his nose yesterday, suggesting new elections https://oc-media.org/armenian-prime-minister-calls-for-new-elections-in-2021/
If Pashinyan were to bother to take a glance again at those tea leaves, he'd see that resigning now would save he and his party humiliation at the polls later.
