Armenia –

The families of the soldiers killed in the 44-day Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) war in the fall of 2020 have decided to hold a sit-in at Freedom Square in downtown Yerevan, they are trying to put up a tent there, but the police are not allowing it.

They are joining the two young participants of the 44-day war who are on hunger strike at Freedom Square.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
