The Pan Armenian Council of the Western United States  is starting a 24-hour hunger strike in support of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), we learn from the Facebook page of the council.

The participants of this hunger strike demand from US President Joe Biden to take clear steps to end the ongoing blockade of Artsakh by Azerbaijan.

Armenians living in Los Angeles County were protesting for days in support of besieged Artsakh. Also, they staged a sit-in and met with Adam Schiff, a member of the US House of Representatives and the co-chair of the US Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues.
