The Gallup International poll conducted in Armenia on July 3-6, 2024, indicated that Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s rating has dropped to 13.4% among potential Armenian voters. When he first came to power six years ago, his rating was around 80%.
When asked, “How do you evaluate the work of Nikol Pashinyan?”
13.4% of the public said that they find his work “completely positive.” This is four percent higher than two months ago in May.
21.7% evaluated his work in July as â




I’m not saying that support for Pashinyan is low, but you’ve sourced this from Gallup International, which is NOT the same Gallup that we know in the West. It is a Russian propaganda organization that copied the name of the renowned American research house.
I’m saddened that Armenian Weekly would be reposting Russian propaganda.
Ah, I see. You would like A.W. to repost Western propaganda instead…
Really? Can they do that? Do tell more.
Matt, congratulations. You are now an official pro-Pashinyan propagandist. You will be soon appointed as Minister of (maybe) Propaganda. Yes, I know Gallup International is separate from Gallup. But, please tell me what is your evidence that Gallup International “is a Russian propaganda organization….” I don’t think you read my article. If you had, you would have seen that at least two of the results are in favor of Pashinyan. Why would Russia fund a survey that paints Pashinyan favorably, unless you also believe that Pashinyan is also a Russian project? Please back up your accusation before your make up baseless stories.
No going back
In Politics the leader has to be flexible, looking after highest values and interests of his/her Nation, to be seen strong and have real friends and nations who will support you during hard times.
If US Pres. Joe Biden is withdrawing from presidency, then PM Nicole can do without waiting for people to throw stones on his traveling car to understand that his popularity reached to ground level.
PM Nicole has a catalog of failures to Armenians, Armenia’s economy and building effective deterrence against Armenia’s real and potential enemies. PM Nicole thinks that any country gives him token assistance then he has a friend. the reality is that all countries look after their interest first as the ex.pres. Trump says ‘America first’.
PM Nicole has been failure in his Media career because it takes him long speeches which should be said in few words. in TV reporting time is money.
PM Nicole has a weak style in dealing with Turkey and Azerbaijan hence Turkish President [the great pretender] keeps belittling PM Nicole by illegal access demands through Armenia to establish direct foothold in Caspian sea. on the other hand the Azeri President [The great dictator] when his not under ‘medications’ feels to invade Armenia because he is sitting on oil and gas fields.
in conclusion PM Nicole has been given enough opportunities to advance Armenia in this difficult time and geography but he is not up to the task and should think about his future and legacy.
NB; any new Armenian leader should learn to ignore the leaders of current Turkey and Azerbaijan [if required] and work with neighbors of Armenia at north and south and with economic powers from Diaspora’s countries.
