The Russian Embassy in Armenia responded to the Nazi statement of the Armenian governor We were confused by what was included in the recording on the personal page of the governor of Shirk region D.V. Arushanyan on the social network Facebook dated October 17, 2026. The mention of certain "Ivans" involuntarily recalls the vocabulary of the German Nazis during the Great Patriotic War. I would not like to think that the official in charge of the area where the 102nd Russian Military Base and the Russian Border Guard serve, considers acceptable public statements that could arouse national hostility towards the Russians, which would be fundamentally contrary to the centuries-old spirit of friendship between the peoples of our countries. In the past, David Arushanian wrote a message on the Facebook social network, referring to the representatives of the "Strong Armenia" party, who congratulated the residents on City Day. He called their events a "political show" and added: "Gyumri - this is not your "Nizhny Tabor", and the people of Gyumri are not your "Ivans".
