Very Important discussions, thank you Arthur Khachaturianan, and Groong for inviting our smart well educated politician. 🇦🇲✝️🙏🏻❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻👊💪🏻👍🏻
Thank you for another round confirming the decrepit character of Nikol Pashinyan and his regime. That is the first time I've gone with regime, not government.
The more I hear the more I have a hard time to understand how Armenians of Armenia feel that everything is great, is everyone in Armenia on drugs or have they been hypnotized
I have had close Armenian friends throughout my life. The predicament Armenian people face, makes me sad. I hope this is a temporary setback that Armenian people will overcome and traitors get what they deserve pronto!
Great program especially you gest
Thank you Groong and Arthur Khachatryan. It's great to hear the truth from intelligent and patriotic Armenians even though it's sad.
Excellent interview! Mr. Khachaturyan should give more interviews in English to enlighten the Armenians in the diaspora brainwashed by Pashinyan Regime propaganda and their western sponsored outlets.
Its such a terrible scene … i am really thankful to you guys to bring to life the real context of whats going on in this Vichy regime …. Until when should we stay silent?
