A group of protesters on Thursday blocked the Martuni-Gavar highway in Armenia’s Gegharkunik Province, demanding that Nikol Pashinyan and his team step down.

The demonstrators chanted “Nikol the traitor!” and “Turk Nikol!”.

The Armenian opposition launched a large-scale civil disobedience campaign on May 2, warning the government against concessions to Azerbaijan over Artsakh. Protesters claim Armenia’s security is also threatened.
