Past daily of Armenia writes as follows, in particular: For a long time, information has been circulating that the matter of removing Russian [TV] channels from multiplexes in Armenia is actively discussed within the [Armenian] authorities. Moreover, this was announced in plain text by the HTI [i.e. the high-tech industry] minister back in the spring, but everything had ended with partial, temporary restrictions under the guise of "debt."

Our sources close to the CC [i.e. the ruling Civil Contract Party] inform that [PM Nikol] Pashinyan's authorities seems to have a final decision on this matter; that is, to cut Russian TV channels off the air in Armenia once and for all. According to our source, the process will start already in January.

By the way, there are reports that the [Armenian] authorities are trying to find legal "loopholes," options to restrict the broadcasting of "non-multiplex" Russian [TV] channels as well, especially the so-called "information-political" ones.
