February 18, 2026 Chief editor: Lilit Muradya Today we would like to introduce to our audience the author of the new ARMnews news and analytical platform, social and political activist, blogger Heghine Asiryan. In recent years, Heghine has become known to the public for her active social activities and bold publications, political analyzes and harsh criticisms published on social networks. His blog was formed as a platform where the internal political developments of Armenia, the problems of state administration, the Artsakh issue, human rights topics and many other issues affecting the society were openly discussed. However, after her public criticism of the authorities, Heghine's public blog was blocked, as a result of which thousands of her followers were deprived of the unique opportunity to see reality in its true colors. We are convinced that one of the most important values of democracy is pluralism, and the mission of journalism is to provide a platform for different points of view. Based on this belief, "ARMnews" offered Heghine Asiryan cooperation and the opportunity to write an author's column. From now on, his author's articles, political comments on internal and external challenges of Armenia, democratic processes, diaspora and other topics of public importance will be regularly published on our website. The editors consider it important to emphasize that for the healthy development of society, it is necessary to provide a free environment where different opinions can be voiced without fear, pressure or censorship. We are happy to welcome Heghine Asiryan to ARMnews and we are sure that her experience, principled position and analyzes will be interesting and valuable for our readers.
