The EU is facing legal action for allegedly "dismantling democracy," as concerns in one of its member states grow over attacks on the Church and an electoral crisis.The EU has supported the Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, despite his government's attacks on the Armenian Apostolic Church, with lawyers now threatening legal action.In a letter to the EU president, Ursula von der Leyen, lawyers working for opposition leader Samvel Karapetyan have alleged that the EU has provided unconditional support to Mr Pashinyan, despite a continued campaign against political opponents, religious institutions, and independent voices.The letter details hundreds of politically motivated arrests that have been carried out under the current government, and that the EU's continued support despite being aware of those has raised concerns over the treatment of opposition figures, clergy, and civil society critics.
