[Вы поняли, да? @Hugo_StiglitzUA]

Они сумели построить демократическое государство на Кавказе. Без выхода к морю. Без залежей нефти и газа. Без огромной армии. И я верю в них. Они - это Армения 🇦🇲

Весь цивилизованный Мир сегодня с демократической и свободной Арменией! 🇦🇲

Удачи вам, ЛЮДИ!

THREAD: Armenia just became one of the world's top AI powers.

Firebird AI — a $4B megaproject with NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs — just landed its first chips.

A country of 3M people. 110,000+ GPUs. "Stargate of the Caucasus."

I look forward to starting the work of the EU-Armenia Task Force as agreed between President von der Leyen and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan today.

Europe stands in solidarity with Armenia in the face of the economic coercion by Russia.

The EU financial support, trade measures and solidarity will help to alleviate the pressure. I look forward to returning to Armenia very soon.

Знакомьтесь, Гагик из России. Он только что прибыл из аэропорта и уже стоит на митинге.

Он прямо говорит, что будущее Армении его не интересует.
Жить в ней Гагик не собирался.
Он и еще 55 человек пришли ради одного: Чтобы Карапетян был на свободе.

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

I spoke with @NikolPashinyan about Russia’s recent restrictions targeting Armenia.

This is nothing short of economic coercion, and it is unacceptable.

Europe stands firmly with Armenia. We are preparing a support package.

I noticed that Armenia has started a criminal investigation against Mika Badalyan, who stated that he helped 1000's of Armenians to come from Russia. @MakichyanA exposed it when he was offered a ticket. On June 1, I asked Badalyan too. This is what he told me.

[Mikhail Khodorkovsky @khodorkovsky_en]

The same playbook was used in Armenia against Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. This time, they claimed that he bought a €3.1 million villa in Marseille with foreign aid money. It never went as viral as the Zelensky hoax, but it saturated Armenian media enough that Pashinyan had to issue a formal denial.

Completely fake #BBC video claiming #France is sending troops to #Armenia. Yet seeing it do the rounds - the amount of misinformation being peddled during this election is astounding.

🧵 1/24 THREAD: A data-driven analysis of the new @IRIglobal / CISR public opinion survey of Armenia (fieldwork May 5–11, 2026; n=1,511; RDD CATI; MoE ±2.8). With parliamentary elections set for June 7, 2026, this is the last major public poll before the vote. Let's dig in. 🇦🇲

[KING 🇦🇲 @king___arm]

Только что Казахстан и Кыргызстан официально присоединились к политике России и Минской области РФ против Армении и Европы. Фактически диктаторы потребовали от суверенного демократического государства в лице Армении провести референдум по вопросу членства в ЕС или ЕАЭС.

Bob Amsterdam: the lawyer behind the opposition party trying to take down Pashinyan. The Canadian–American lawyer has emerged as a key mouthpiece of opposition Russian–Armenian oligarch Samvel Karapetyan.

🧵 Introducing a brand new bot / troll network targeting Armenians abroad (and at home?)

Critical to Pashinyan, the network endorses his key opponents and pro-Russia parties, giving no clear preference to either of them.

Now you can see their replies highlighted in the wild.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Today in Yerevan, Armenian Foreign Minister @AraratMirzoyan and I announced a bilateral framework agreement on the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) and signed a Strategic Partnership Charter and MOU on Critical Minerals, furthering the goals established during @POTUS’s historic peace summit between Armenia and Azerbaijan. We also discussed the peace process and Armenia’s upcoming elections.

BREAKING: George Deek, Israel's Special Envoy to the Christian World, says "We never got involved or took position in the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia, per se", which led to the ethnic cleansing of Christian Armenians and their Churches from Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).

You have to admire that carefully placed "per se". The amount of heavy lifting it does for Israel's image in the Christian world would've been commendable had it not been a typical hasbara escape hatch, absolving Israel of any responsibility or accountability, and invariably collapsing under the weight of Israel's own record during that war.

In no particular order:

⁃According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), between 2016 and 2020, leading up to the 44 Day War, roughly 69% of weapons exports to Azerbaijan came from Israel, in a war that butchered 5,000 Armenian soldiers, barely adults. So neutral.

⁃The highly advanced Israeli weapons systems included loitering munitions (suicide drones) such as the IAI Harop and Elbit SkyStriker, Hermes 900 reconnaissance drones, Spike anti-tank guided missiles, and LORA surface-to-surface ballistic missiles.

⁃Israeli weapons manufacturer Aeronautics Defense Systems used a suicide drone by attacking Armenian positions during a sale presentation at the behest of Azeri officials who requested a live demonstration.

⁃Israeli military personnel trained Azeri soldiers in piloting drones.

⁃Azerbaijan supplies 65% of Israel's crude oil imports, which are pumped via the BTC pipeline through Georgia and Turkey. A clear energy security and arms agreement: you send oil, we give you weapons.
So neutral.

⁃In December 2023, Azerbaijan effectively blockaded the Lachin Corridor, the only route between Armenia and Artsakh. A starvation campaign ensued for 9 months, targeting hundreds of thousands of Armenian indigenous Christians: Food shortages, supermarket shelves emptied, families lining up for hours for a piece of bread. No fuel. No medicine. Cancer patients requiring urgent treatment were stranded. Malnutrition. Miscarriages.

George Deek was Ambassador at that time. He was there in Baku.

Did he voice concern for the besieged Christians in Artsakh? No. His country enabled it. Haaretz, an Israeli outlet, even published a bombshell report entitled "Israel's fingerprints all over the ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh".

To quote the Special Christian envoy himself:

"When violence against a vulnerable minority is ignored because acknowledging it is politically inconvenient, there is a name for it: abandonment."

For Israel, the defense of the Armenian Christian presence in Artsakh was politically inconvenient.

That is why they were complicit in the ethnic cleansing of 150,000 indigenous Christian Armenians from their 2,000-year-old homeland.
