The information provided by 168.am newspaper according to which the National Security Service of Armenia has conducted a survey showing that Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan’s rating was low (19.5%) is phony and doesn’t correspond to reality.

Moreover, based on the reliable operational data of the National Security Service, certain representatives of the elite of the former authorities of Armenia ordered a closed survey last month to use the data of the survey for future reference.

Based on the results of the survey, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan had a record-setting high rating (as high as it was in May 2018), and this has made the representatives of the former authorities deeply disappointed.

We view the publication of 168.am newspaper as an expression of that disappointment.

The National Security Service would also like to mention that the data of the National Security Service on the Prime Minister’s rating have also been confirmed through a synthesis and analysis of the results of three various sociological surveys that were recently published.
