Opposition movement stages more two campaigns against Pashinyan

PanARMENIAN.Net - The opposition Resistance Movement has begun marching from two more destinations towards Yerevan, as part of a bigger initiative to oust Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan from power.

Two separate groups of people on Thursday, April 28 launched campaigns from the town of Aparan, Aragatsotn province and the village of Sardarapat, Armavir province.

Protesters are currently marching towards the capital from a total of four destinations across the country, including Ijevan, which Pashinyan's hometown, and the village of Tigranashen, Ararat province.

Pashinyan himself staged a massive disobedience campaign back in the spring of 2018 and removed then Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan who had been in power for 10 years. The PM, however, came under fire after signing a statement with the Russian and Azerbaijani Presidents to end the war in Nagorno-Karabakh almost 45 days after the start of the military hostilities. Under the deal, the Armenian side was forced to cede all the regions surrounding Karabakh to Azerbaijan, having lost a part of Karabakh itself in hostilities.
