The meeting between Deputy Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and the border residents at the Voskepar checkpoint took on a different tone compared to previous meetings. Reports from Armenian news website NEWS.am, quoting journalist Voskan Sargsyan, highlighted the distinct appearance, format, and atmosphere of this meeting. Metal detectors, similar to those seen in airports, were installed for the first time. Mobile phones were also not allowed during the meeting, something Pashinyan claimed he has never done since becoming prime minister. Despite a smooth discussion, many questions asked by residents remained unanswered, particularly concerning the issue of village settlements and landmines. Pashinyan expressed hope for peace, emphasizing Turkey’s potential involvement in case of war with Azerbaijan. Plans to establish buffer zones and build a new highway were also mentioned, but specific details were lacking. Overall, the meeting raised concerns and left some residents unsatisfied with the responses provided by the Deputy Prime Minister.
