  • “False and Sacrilegious”: Russian Ambassador Condemns Armenian Official’s WWII Claims

    By Lia Avagyan Russian Ambassador to Armenia Sergey Kopyrkin has strongly condemned statements made by Artsrun Hovhannisyan, the former spokesperson of Armenia’s Defense Ministry, regarding World War II and Nazi Germany’s potential impact on Armenia. In an open letter published on May 16, addressed to Armenian Defense Minister Suren Papikyan, Ambassador Kopyrkin expressed his outrage over what he described as “historically false and sacrilegious statements” made by Hovhannisyan on Armenian Public Television on May 9, the day commemorating the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. “Against the backdrop of deep respect for the Victory Day celebration among […]

  • Armenia conceals agreement with Azerbaijan that terminated search for Karabakh

    By Hayk Hovhannisyan, #CivilNetCheck Armenia’s Ministry of Internal Affairs is refusing to disclose details of an agreement with Azerbaijan that led to the termination of a search for an Azerbaijani citizen accused of war crimes.

    Why Netanyahu’s Baku visit was scrapped 

    In this episode of Insights, host Eric Hacopian covers three key developments shaping Armenia’s regional and domestic landscape.

Finally, he covers the expansion of additional Wizz Air flights from Europe to Armenia, calling […]

  • Armenia’s gold trade decline raises questions about economic sustainability 

    By Arshaluys Mghdesyan Armenia’s gold trade has seen a dramatic collapse in early 2025, following a brief surge driven by geopolitical and policy shifts in the region during 2023-2024. In an interview with CivilNet, economist Haykaz Fanyan explained that the boom in gold exports during 2023 and early 2024 was largely the result of a temporary loophole created by Russian export policies. In September 2023, Russia imposed a 10% export duty on gold, aiming to boost its federal revenues amid rising global gold prices and the financial pressures of war. The duty, however, excluded exports within the Eurasian Economic Union […]
