Massive Protests To Remove PM Hits Yerevan Armenia have started in Yerevan
In Yerevan Armenia, it is said that Saturday's protest is to be the start of the daily protests in to force the Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan to Resign. In September of 2020 Azerbaijan began to invaded the Unrecognized country of the Republic of Artsakh(Officially recognized by most countries as Azerbaijan but 100% of the Population considers it part of Armenia). These attacks by Azerbaijan trigger a 44-day war that killed thousands on both sides. In the beginning of November Russia with Vladimir Putin stepped in to broker a trilateral agreement to bring peace. This agreement was a sign by Nikol Pashinyan and this gave most of the territory of the Republic of Artsakh to Azerbaijan. This was a shock to all Armenians. These people that are protesting want Pashinyan to resign.
The opposition leader Vazgen Mikaeli Manukyan was the main speaker and is an Armenian politician who served as the first Prime Minister of Armenia from 1990 to 1991. From 1992 to 1993, during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, Manukyan was Defence Minister of Armenia. Manukyan is a huge driving force in the movement to remove Pashiyan.
After the protest was over many streets around the city were blocked by protesters.
Homeland Salvation Movement coordinator Ishkhan Saghatelyan told the reporters that disobedience actions will be conducted in all directions.
“It will be continuous. From Monday protest actions will be conducted every day until the government resigns. Each citizen is free to show his dissatisfaction in a way he/she wants,” Saghatelyan said.
