There has been a political upheaval in the Caucasian country Armenia. Here a priest has made a sensational allegation against the country's prime minister Nikol Pasian of changing his religion. The priest has said that Pasian has left christianity and accepted Judaism. On this, the President has offered to present proof of his being a Christian in front of the church.
Pasian himself has asked to appear before the church because judaism also has the tradition of circumcising men like Islam. That is why the PM has offered to expose himself in front of the church.
Many priests, leaders and businessmen detained on charges of coup
However, along with giving proof of his being a Christian, the prime minister of armenia has detained many priests, businessmen and leaders of opposition parties of the country. Pasian has filed cases like national security and terrorism accusing all of them of coup. The public is enraged over the arrests of the priests. Clashes are taking place between the police and the public at various places. Pictures of security forces forcefully entering the church have also surfaced.
The dispute started after accusing the priest of violating religion
The dispute between the government and the church in armenia started when Pashinyan accused an important priest of the country of violating religion by becoming the father of a girl. In the year 2020, armenia had a war with its neighboring country azerbaijan over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh. Armenia had to face defeat in the war and lost a large area of the disputed area to Azerbaijan. Since then, the popularity of the prime minister of armenia has decreased in his country.
Armenia's political turmoil can become a matter of concern for India
General elections are to be held in armenia next year. Even before that, there has been an earthquake in politics. But this news can cause concern in terms of India. Because in recent years, Armenia's relations with india have become very strong. While Armenia's arch enemy Azerbaijan is considered close to Pakistan. During Operation Sindoor, armenia supported india while azerbaijan, like Turkey, supported Pakistan.
