“Armenia’s Troubling Path: Risks and Consequences Loom as Protesters Rally Against ‘Foreign Agents’ Law”
The article titled “Armenia is facing risks and is expecting significant consequences” highlights that Armenia has informed its trade partners, including Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, and Iceland, about the adoption of the law on “foreign agents” and the ongoing protests in the country against the authorities and political opposition. These developments may have implications for Armenia’s progress towards the European Union and NATO, leading to an expected response from the Armenian government. Landsbergs, a representative from one of the partner countries, emphasized the importance of upholding the principles of law, human rights, fundamental freedoms, and democratic governance. Māris Čaklovskis, a representative from Estonia, voiced his support for Armenia while criticizing the “foreign agents” law for violating human rights and civil liberties.
