There could be no considerable increase, or none at all, in Armenia’s defense spending in the 2026 state budget, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated at a press briefing Thursday.

Pashinyan called this logical, and explained that this is the current assessment of the Armenian authorities.

“However, we will continue to promptly analyze the situation. And all our decisions will be tantamount to the development of events in the short-term, medium-term, and long-term outlook,” added the Armenian premier.
