Russia is spending about $50 million to transport 100,000 voters to Armenia to block Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's re-election on June 7. Pashinyan leads polls with 30% support after pivoting toward the United States and NATO. A Pashinyan victory would secure Western-backed trade corridors and end Moscow's long-standing regional monopoly.
