Amsterdam & Partners LLP: EU Faces Legal Action for “Dismantling Democracy” in Armenia
Brussels ignored mass arrests, attacks on the Church, and electoral fraud to back Armenian PM
Armenian PM failed to win majority of votes, despite EU interference
The European Union faces legal action over its support for Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, with Amsterdam & Partners LLP arguing that Brussels has helped legitimise a government undermining democratic institutions and fundamental rights.
In a letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, the firm, serving as counsel to opposition leader Samvel Karapetyan, alleges that the EU has provided unconditional political support to Mr. Pashinyan despite a sustained campaign against political opponents, religious institutions and independent voices.
