Armenia's PM offers to expose himself in escalating Church row

Armenia's PM, Nikol Pashinyan, is embroiled in a dispute with the Armenian Apostolic Church, involving allegations of a coup plot and controversial personal statements. The tension escalated when Pashinyan offered to expose himself to disprove claims of not being a Christian, a response to accusations by a priest about his circumcision. The Church, critical of the government since Armenia's 2020 war defeat, recently saw senior clerics detained on charges of terrorism, amid claims of an opposition coup plan involving politicians and a billionaire.
