Recent political developments in Armenia are worrying, Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) President Arayik Harutyunyan said Thursday, February 25. His comments came almost immediately after the General Staff of the Armenian Armed forces demanded the resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, who said, in turn, that he has already dismissed the Chief of General Staff, Colonel-General Onik Gasparyan.

"I urge all parties to show sobriety and common sense, otherwise our defeat will be much deeper and fatal," Harutyunyan said.

"Enough of the bloodshed already. Now is the time to put an end to crises, to embark on a long process of development and strengthening."

Harutyunyan said he is in Yerevan, the Armenian capital, and is ready to mediate and help overcome the crisis.
