Mediaport Telegram Channel reports that President of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) Arayik Haroutyunyan is on a secret visit to the Russian Federation, citing its source.

“The fact of the matter is that Nikol Pashinyan has decided to dismiss Haroutyunyan and replace him with Samvel Babayan through Hakobyan’s lobbying. Knowing that he can’t go against the Anna Hakobyan-Samvel Babayan pair, Haroutyunyan has rushed to the Russian Federation to prevent his possible dismissal. Haroutyunyan is asking Russia for help and convincing the latter that if Samvel Babayan, who has problems with Russia, becomes President of Artsakh, it will first and foremost have a negative impact on Russia.

The President of Artsakh will stay in the Russian Federation until November 25,” the source reports.
