According to Past daily, the illegal show trial being carried out against the military-political leadership of Artsakh and other Armenian captives in Baku is one of the most painful issues for Armenia’s society today. Moreover, the country’s population is pessimistic about Armenia’s authorities helping to support them in any way. In particular, 42% believe that there is no assistance at all, and 23% believe that if there is, it is not effective.

Similar results were obtained from a poll conducted by the Focus alliance of Eurasian sociologists. At the same time, 29% believe that the guilt for the captured Armenians lies with Armenia’s authorities, 27% with Azerbaijan, and 18% with Russia.

As for Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s initiative to develop and put to a referendum a new Constitution at the demand of Azerbaijan and Turkey, where Artsakh and the Armenian Genocide shall not be mentioned, according to the survey results, 79% of Armenia’s population is fundamentally against it.

It is noteworthy that the idea of European integration of Nikol Pashinyan’s government also does not have a particularly positive response. According to the survey data, if the referendum on EU membership were held this Sunday, 40% would vote against and 23% for. About 20% said they would not vote. The number of those undecided on this matter is about 10%.
