At the moment, military threats are very low compared to a few months ago or a year ago. Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Armenia,  Kristinne Grigoryan, told this to reporters Monday, and added that this is largely due to the agreements reached in Washington on August 8 between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

"But we also should not rule out or forget the work done in the previous period, including within the framework border delimitation, which created that foundation, that direction of Armenia's foreign policy which gave us this opportunity. But I also want to say that we still have a lot to do," Grigoryan added.

She noted that although military threats are currently assessed as very low, threats to democracy exist.

"They should not be underestimated because democracy is the pace, regimen, and ideology of our movement. We shall see and address these threats in our daily work,” said the head of Armenia’s foreign intelligence.

To a reporter’s question about which country these threats come from, Grigoryan replied: “Threats to democracy do not come from one state or actor; they, as a rule, come from several states—combined or separately. I can confidently argue [that] there is no state whose threats to democracy, governance or security come from one state—and Armenia is no exception.”

According to her, these threats will never disappear, and therefore we must be able to come to terms with them.

“In the work of addressing threats, we must be able to not miss the big picture; that is, not to look at the world from a small angle that does not show the whole picture, but to try to see these risks in the big picture and change and find creative solutions that will be based on the basis of legitimacy,” Grigoryan noted.

"In any period of the history of the conflict [with Azerbaijan], any casualty, injury, and disrupted fate is equally important and painful for us. Here it is another thing to follow such tactics in building peace and ensuring an environment that we do not create new security threats and do not have new casualties. Our respect and eternal glory are to our casualties. And it is our duty to build a prosperous and peaceful state," added the head of Armenia's foreign intelligence service.
