The team of the "Strong Armenia" leader called the arrest of Samvel Karaftian proof that the state structures of Armenia are following Pashinyan's orders. The statement reads: A few days ago, the Prime Minister publicly threatened the opposition who oppose the "Aliyev Constitution", and today Carpatian was taken into custody again. According to the authors, Aliyev is weakening Armenia from the outside, and Pashinyan is weakening it from the inside, and by re-arresting he is trying to undemocratically force the adoption of the "Aliyev Constitution". "Together we will say no to this constitution in the name of preserving Armenia's independence," the statement emphasizes. It is also noted that in 2025, Karaftian, even in detention, rallied the people around the defense of national identity and independence and will continue this struggle, despite the obstacles.
