ArmInfo.Residents of the border villages of Tavush spent the second night on the Voskepar-Kirants road and demand that the Armenian authorities abandon the idea of transferring the sovereign territories of the Republic of Armenia to Azerbaijan.
As residents of Kirants said, yesterday's meeting of the heads of border communities in Yerevan with the Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan and Deputy Prime Minister Mher Grigoryan was disappointing.
"We, along with our houses, are being handed over to the enemy. The heads of our communities intend to resign and be with the people until the end. If we don't remove the one who is at the head of Armenia today and is handing over our lands, nothing good awaits us. People with property documents are being kicked out of their own homes," residents of Kirants say.
Notably, citizens of the border villages of Tavush have been taking to the streets for the fourth day demanding an end to the illegal process of transferring Armenian territories to the enemy. Yesterday morning, military police, accompanied by police, blocked off the area around the 7th century Armenian church in Voskepar and carried out mine clearance there. The reason for the rallies was the decision to transfer 4 more Armenian villages to the enemy side under the guise of their enclave status.
On April 22, by the decision of the Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, another working group was established under the commission on issues of delimitation of the state border and border security between Armenia and Azerbaijan, which included representatives of the Ministry of Defense, the General Staff of the Armed Forces, the National Security Service, the Ministry of Territorial Administration and Infrastructures, and the Cadastre Committee of the Republic. The coordination of the group's work was entrusted to the head of the NSS department, David Sanamyan.
