Samvel Karapetyan, leader of the Strong Armenia party, has outlined his vision for a peaceful and prosperous Armenia, criticizing the current authorities for their perceived failures in protecting the nation and fostering division. Speaking on Facebook, Karapetyan pledged that if elected prime minister this September, he would ensure peace and unity, contrasting this with the current government's alleged promises of peace that led to three wars. He promised to establish low taxes, create 300,000 new jobs, strengthen diplomacy and defense with 10,000 drones and a modernized army, and secure lasting peace through strong borders and multiple security guarantors, rejecting the idea that peace comes from weakness or submission.
