In recent weeks, an interesting process has become increasingly evident. Alen Simonyan is not only strengthening his position, but also clearly demonstrating that he is preparing for a higher political position, and Nikol Pashinyan, surprisingly, seems to be resigned to this.
Simonyan’s statement on the ArmComedy podcast:
“I also made a revolution.”
This wasn’t just another statement. It was the formulation typically used by people beginning to advance their role and already considering a future leadership position.
And now this has been repeatedly noted in his statements and behavior.
The most interesting thing is that Pashinyan is silent.
He doesn’t contradict, doesn’t clarify, doesn’t “cool down” the topic.
He is silent. And this silence is never accidental in the political sphere.
And here the real question arises:
Does Pashinyan really entertain the idea that Alen Simonyan could replace him?
If he didn’t want such talk, he would respond with one word, one public hint. But he doesn’t.
And such silence often says more than any public statement.
Today, one thing is clear:
Simonyan, through his behavior, clearly demonstrates that he sees himself in the future leadership role.
He is actively, aggressively, and prudently moving to the forefront.
And Pashinyan’s silence not only fails to stop all this, but, in fact, allows this process to take on a natural character.
