Unity of Hayazn Youth members marched to the presidential residence today to submit a letter after which they organized a 24-hour sit-in outside the RA Ministry of Foreign Affairs building in Yerevan. The youth are protesting today’s meeting of the presidents of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Russia in Kazan, where there is a possibility that a framework document on the Basic Principles to settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict will be signed.
“We felt yielding, despairing moods in statements by Armenian officials before the Kazan meeting. We are Armenian youth, we are demanding, we are not indifferent and we don’t bargain the blood of our heros, we are the owner of the liberated lands and we don’t want to concede even a single inch,” Unity of Hayazn Youth representative Lilit Petrosyan told Epress.am.
The sit-in, which had about 10 participants, was accompanied by patriotic songs, as well as various calls: “We have no land to hand over,” “The one who hands over land is a traitor,” and “Not a single inch of land to the enemy.”
