Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan addressed the Global Armenian Summit held in Yerevan on Nov. 6.

In his speech at a similar summit in 2024, Pashinyan offended everyone by claiming that the “biggest problem” facing him and his audience was being patriotic.

He also insulted his diaspora audience by criticizing and rejecting the humanitarian aid they had sent to Armenia.
