Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan says he will sue Russian-Armenian businessman Samvel Karapetyan after Karapetyan publicly alleged that Pashinyan speaks “under the influence of mushrooms” before appearances. Both outlets describe an escalating dispute between the two figures, with Karapetyan’s comments framed as accusations about Pashinyan’s conduct or state of mind, and Pashinyan responding that such claims are unacceptable and will be challenged in court. OC Media and JAMnews both report that Pashinyan’s intention to file a lawsuit follows Karapetyan’s remarks, which have triggered a wider “war of words” between them. While the reports focus on the mushroom-related allegation and the immediate response, they also indicate that the confrontation has broadened beyond a single claim. The sources do not provide independent confirmation of the allegations, but they consistently characterize the situation as a public backlash and legal threat stemming from Karapetyan’s statements.
