We will fight, we will enter Artsakh and will provide the people there with food: Protest outside the Government building

A number of people who fought in the Artsakh war are staging
a protest outside the Government building. They demand that the Government take
steps toward the opening of the Lachin corridor.

“We are not here to just pose for a photo and leave. We
are here for serious actions. We must open the road to Artsakh and provide our
people there with food. We will enter Artsakh with war and will restore the
dignity that we have lost. We will fight and will enter Artsakh. First, we will
fight the Government, then the Turks. We will unblock the Hakari bridge by
force of arms. I want to take up arms. Supply me with arms so that I will go to
Artsakh,” the commander of the Crusaders volunteer detachment said.

The protesters called on Nikol Pashinyan: “This is not
the Government building. This is our homeland, our state and the capital of our
state. We came here of our own accord. We must find a way out of this
situation, as we have only one enemy. It is the Turk.”

The police informed the protesters that they could already
be received in the Government building. 

After the meeting, one of the protesters said: “We were
not received by a Government official. Just a man was there to listen to what
we had to say and to pass on our message to the Government. He told us to
present our demand and said that he would pass it on to the Government. We, in
our turn, set a deadline for them to answer our questions till 6:00 p.m. If the
convoys carrying humanitarian aid do not arrive at Artsakh, we will have to
take measures.

As the commander of the Crusaders volunteer detachment said,
if the road to Artsakh is not unblocked by the deadline set by them, and food
is not delivered to Artsakh, they will have to take their measures to open the
road.
