YEREVAN. – A group of youth from the opposition Armenian Revolutionary Federation-ARF Dashnaktsutyun Party staged a demonstration outside the central office of Armenia’s ruling Civil Contract Party.
They expressed their protest against the trilateral joint statement on Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).
Police apprehended a young woman and a young man.
On November 9, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, and Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a joint statement on a complete cessation of hostilities— which Azerbaijan had launched on September 27—in and around Artsakh. Accordingly, Russian peacekeepers are deployed in the region to monitor the implementation of the ceasefire and the cessation of hostilities. But this statement also stipulates the handover of part of Artsakh lands to Azerbaijan.
