Artsakh Armenians protest against Azeri blockade outside U.S. Embassy
Artsakh Armenians staged an anti-blockade protest outside the U.S. Embassy in Yerevan on Tuesday.
They urged the U.S. to break Azerbaijan’s seven-month blockade of the Lachin Corridor, Artsakh's only land link with Armenia, and stand up for Artsakh's right to self-determination.
Earlier on Tuesday, they protested outside the French Embassy in Yerevan.
The protesters accused the U.S and the other co-chair countries of the OSCE Minsk Group of playing “political supergames” and submitting to the Turkish-Azerbaijani tandem.
Taguhi Tovmasyan, an MP from the opposition Pativ Unem faction who attended the rally, urged the U.S. to stop the aggressor and recognize Artsakh's independence.
