A teaser video of an interview with Narek Karapetyan, coordinator of Armenia's Our Way movement, has been posted online. The interview, conducted by American journalist Tucker Carlson, is set to discuss the country's political climate and national liberation struggle.

Samvel Karapetyan, a prominent figure in Armenian politics, was arrested in June 2024 after a failed attempt to detain him by the Interior Ministry. He was charged with inciting a violent seizure of power and initially ordered held for two months, with his detention later extended. Samvel's defense team maintains that the criminal case against him is politically motivated.

Meanwhile, singer Philipp Kirkorov has released a video address to Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, accusing authorities of pressuring Samvel Karapetyan and the Armenian Apostolic Church. The interview with Tucker Carlson, which aired on November 4, 2025, is expected to delve into these issues and more, with details of the key topics remaining undisclosed.

The full version of the interview between Narek Karapetyan and Tucker Carlson is set to be released in the near future, promising insights into Armenia's political climate and the ongoing controversy surrounding Samvel Karapetyan's arrest. The interview, marked 'Coming Soon' on the movement's official social media channels, is anticipated to spark further discussion and debate.
