French-Armenian journalist going on hunger strike at Zvartnots airport as denied entry into Armenia

French journalist of Armenian origin Leo Nicolian was refused entry into Armenia. Nicolian went on a hunger strike at Zvartnots airport.

“I will not leave Armenia; I am starting a hunger strike right here at passport control at Zvartnots airport. Without showing the relevant decision and without giving any justification, they are refusing me entry into my homeland. Maybe because I covered the events taking place in Voskepar; maybe because I was in Vospear,” Nicolian said in a video message.
