Overview

• Parliamentary hearings on an opposition statement to oust Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan are underway in Yerevan, with supporters rallying outside the National Assembly.
• The Armenia bloc said it is joining the effort and handed to the Chesť imeyu faction a sheet with signatures its deputies placed three months ago.
• Armenian law requires 36 deputies’ signatures to start the process and at least 54 of 107 votes to pass a no‑confidence motion against the prime minister.
• The opposition controls 34 seats compared with the ruling Civil Contract party’s 69, leaving the effort short of the threshold to launch and far from the votes needed to remove Pashinyan.
• Chesť imeyu accuses the government of national‑security failures linked to Nagorno-Karabakh and has proposed Masis mayor David Ambartsumyan as an alternative premier within a transitional unity government plan.
