STEPANAKERT (Realist English). On December 27, during a peaceful march, the residents of Artsakh reached Stepanakert airport, where they demanded a meeting with the commander of the Russian military contingent, General Andrei Volkov.

General Volkov did not come to the meeting with the Artsakh Armenians. Apparently, he simply has nothing to say to people who have been cut off from the outside world due to the fact that Russian servicemen are not ready or do not want to open the Stepanakert-Goris highway.

“Residents of Artsakh headed towards the Russian peacekeeping contingent headquarters near Stepanakert airport with a demand to immediately unblock the Lachin corridor and ensure uninterrupted traffic along it, according to paragraph 6 of the trilateral statement of November 9, 2020.

Artsakh has been under a complete blockade for 15 days. The residents of Nagorno-Karabakh no longer intend to tolerate such crimes against humanity against the civilian population. Hundreds of seriously ill people need medicines and qualified assistance in Armenia. Dozens of children were separated from their parents and loved ones, deprived of the right to education.

The complete lack of imports of goods threatens with mass starvation. And despite all these hardships, the people of Artsakh do not intend to make any concessions to the enemy. Human rights cannot depend on any conditions. They are binding on all members of the world community,” the leader of the Initiative Group of protest Tigran Petrosyan said in a statement.

On December 26, a car march to Stepanakert, initiated by a group of activists, started from the Square of the Republic in Yerevan, Arminfo reports.

According to one of the participants of the action, at the first stage it is planned to visit Goris, where New Year’s gifts will be presented to the Artsakh children who found themselves separated as a result of the blockade by the Baku regime, after which this car journey will head towards the Stepanakert-Goris highway, where the participants intend to hold talks with Armenian police and Russian peacekeepers to ensure unhindered travel to the capital of Artsakh.

“We do not intend to enter into a confrontation with anyone, our action is of a humanitarian nature. Each of us must do something good for the people of Artsakh in this difficult period. You cannot love Artsakh from afar, sitting at home in Yerevan,” a participant of the action said.

On December 27, as a sign of solidarity with the people of Artsakh, another civil action is being held on the Aznavour Square in Yerevan.

On December 25, one of the most numerous rallies in the history of the Armenian National Liberation Movement took place in Stepanakert. A sea of people. The central square and adjacent streets were crowded.
