According to a recent sociological survey conducted by the Armenian representative office of the Gallup International Association, the level of trust in Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan experienced a notable decline.
The survey revealed that 38.1% of respondents "completely distrust" the current head of government, marking a rise from 35.5% recorded in November of the previous year. Conversely, the proportion of individuals expressing "full trust" in Pashinyan decreased to 15.1%, down from 20.4% in the previous survey.
Furthermore, 13.9% of respondents indicated that they "rather trust" the Prime Minister, compared to 13.2% previously. On the other hand, 28.3% expressed "rather distrust," reflecting an increase from 18.6% in the previous poll. Additionally, 4.6% of respondents found it difficult to respond.
According to 38.1% of the survey participants, the Armenian Constitution should remain unchanged. 34.2% expressed the opinion that some provisions should be changed. Only 13.4% of the survey participants believe Armenia needs a new Constitution. To the question "whether extraordinary parliamentary elections are necessary to solve the internal political situation", in November 2023, 33.7% answered that they are not necessary at all, in January 2024, the same answer was given by 29.9% of respondents.
The survey, conducted via phone calls, involved 1,101 participants. A previous Gallup International Association poll from April 2023, which also utilized phone calls and engaged 1,100 respondents between April 26-30, indicated similar sentiments. In that survey, 38.7% of participants "absolutely disapproved" of Prime Minister Pashinyan's activity, while 13.9% "completely approved." Another 24.1% "rather approved," while 12.3% "rather disapproved." Thus, the distribution of opinions regarding the Prime Minister's performance remained relatively consistent over approximately a year.
