Groong Week in Review - July 6, 2025
In this episode of the Groong Podcast, we are joined by Arthur Martirosyan for a Week in Review covering Armenia’s shifting geopolitical landscape and domestic upheaval. The discussion explores the controversial proposal for a U.S.-controlled corridor through Syunik, tensions between Russia and Azerbaijan, and Pashinyan’s escalating confrontation with the Armenian Apostolic Church. The show also examines Armenia’s foreign policy confusion, including talk of joining the SCO, while cracking down on opposition voices—most notably the stripping of immunity from Seyran Ohanyan and Artsvik Minasyan. Against this backdrop, the episode questions the erosion of sovereignty, the use of legal tools for political ends, and the uncertain future of Armenia’s democratic and constitutional order.
Topics

- Western Controlled Syunik?
