Is Pasjikian the strongest Armenian player?
The strongest Armenian player is, of course, Aronian. Akopian and Sargissian are also stronger then the newer generation. Pashikian, Petrosian, Andriasian and Ter Sahakian are rising fast. One should mention also Sergey Movsesian and Varujan Akobian, who are strong Armenian players living abroad.
