FM: Armenia could face immediate war if opposition takes power
Armenia's Foreign Minister warns that an opposition-led government could quickly draw the country into a new conflict with Azerbaijan.
Armenia’s Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan has warned that the country could swiftly be drawn into a new conflict if opposition forces come to power, echoing earlier statements by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan that Armenia could face war as early as September 2026 under such a scenario. Mirzoyan described the September 2026 reference as a conditional timeframe illustrating a short window after elections rather than a fixed date, but he underscored that leadership change could heighten the risk of renewed hostilities with Azerbaijan amid unresolved tensions and ongoing border disputes.
