Personally, I interpret the last sentence as a threat and an interference in the sovereignty and internal affairs of Armenia. It is not up to any country to wish what kind of leaders a democratic state should have.

What Belarus has to do with it ? Selling weapons to your sworn ally’s enemy to be used to murder said ally’s troops?

People might glance over the fact that Armenia has now “good” (in a russocentric sense) reason to freeze its relations with CSTO, the politico article published shows that Pashinyan had received confirmation that him “*slandering*” Belarus is A-Okay
Before this moment, Russia was responding to the “reason why Armenia was not participating” (WHich was CSTO is not confirming the Armenian borders, and not defending it) with “let’s help Armenia solve these issues, but we can’t since the EU is there”.
Now Armenia has thrown a “curveball” to Russia, through Belarus. And the only possible way of action is for Russia to humiliate itself, and Belarus as well, by “bending over” to correct the mistake, punish Belarus etc,etc..
this is “diplomacy”, Armenia has found a good avenue to pass the ball back on Russia, diminishing Russian political pressure (which comes off as soft power in Russian media, pro-Russian circles, etc…)
