Armenian media: Pashinyan's personal security fears growing rapidly

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's personal security fears are growing rapidly, Report informs via Armenia's Hraparak newspaper.

After the 2nd Karabakh War, Pashinyan strengthened security measures both in the parliament and around himself:

"Even accredited journalists are scrutinized. During one of Pashinyan's previous visits, the security guards decided to limit the activities of even media representatives under the pretext of security measures. Also, the operator who filmed Pashinyan the day before was not allowed to zoom the camera."

According to the publication, in addition, cameramen working in the conference hall were warned not to take a close-up of the prime minister:

"It turned out yesterday that a group of parents of soldiers who died in the 44-day war was not allowed to participate in the discussion organized by the Chair of the Standing Committee on Protection of Human Rights and Public Affairs Taguhi Tovmasyan due to Pashinyan's visit. And although the reception of schoolchildren was held in the parliament these days, the meeting was postponed due to an extraordinary session."
