Unless we assess what happened in 2018, we will not find a way out of the current situation—even if this government resigns. Political scientist Stepan Danielyan wrote this on Facebook in connection with the present-day situation in Armenia.

"What is happening in many countries of the world has happened at us [Armenia], and it is a managed process. The stability of any society is based on the middle class and conservative values. You break those values, as a result you disintegrate the middle class, you create a chaos of values, and relying on a crowd guided by the lowest instincts, and the given society is subjected to the imposed power. Starting from 2018, all the fulcrums of our society have been subjected to point shots.

Point by point, all the ideas—Artsakh [(Nagorno-Karabakh)], the [Armenian] Genocide, the [Armenian] church, the family…—of the conservative layer were put under an attack.

This does not mean that our church, the middle class, the previous government were impeccable phenomena; on the contrary, they also have their big fault in what happened, but they should not have been broken, but transformed," Danielyan added in particular.
