The accused of planning the coup, the archbishop of the Armenian church was arrested

Derevan – The outstanding figure of the Armenian Apostolic Church (AAC) was arrested on charges of a coup after he voluntarily surrendered to the authorities. The incident occurred with a deeper conflict between the prime minister (prime minister) Armenia Nikol Pashinyan and the opposition.

The police raided the headquarters of the Apostolic Church of the country, which is the largest church in Armenia, in the city of Vagarshapat. The raid caused a large clash between the figures, members of the church and law enforcement agencies.

Although the pro-demonstrations managers managed to block the previous efforts to retain Archbishop Michael Adzuapahyan, the character decided to go to the building of the investigation committee (IC) and surrender.

Earlier, the authorities tried to confront Adzupiyan for the alleged efforts to conduct a coup, the accusation that was denied as a result of this figure.

A number of demonstrators Pro-GEJA were detained, and the IC announced that they had begun a criminal process in order to impede justice.

The government did not agree with the AAC for several months, because it has become the main factor in the mass protest against the Pashinian agreement to transfer several border villages to Azerbaijan, which had border disputes with Armenia.

While Pashinyan described a step as a way to improve insignificant relations between the two former Soviet republics, many Armenians considered this a betrayal of national interests.
