ArmInfo.Baku has far-reaching ambitions regarding the territory of Armenia, one of the leaders of  the movement , MP from the  faction Garnik Danielyan noted on his Facebook page.

It is terrible when you see in Shurnukh that Azerbaijan has planted  its flag a few meters away and usurped Armenian lands. They make it  clear that they want to take over these territories and then go  deeper.

In Kirants (Tavush region, ed.  note) people are forced to give up  cadastral certificates issued to them under the law of the RA in  favor of the Republic of Azerbaijan. We do not even know at whose  expense these amounts will be issued. We know that the money comes to  Armenia by transfer from Azerbaijan," he wrote. Notably, the MP  raised the issue of money transfers from Azerbaijan to Armenia  several times. On June 13, the head of the Central Bank of the  Republic of Armenia Martin Galstyan stated in parliament that the  bank keeps statistics on transfers only for the first 50 major  destinations, and Azerbaijan is not on this list. "If they are not  there, continuing the logical chain, we can assume that either the  amounts are very small, or they do not exist at all",  Galstyan  noted.  He recalled an incident that happened years ago and caused a  public outcry. The incident was related to transferring money from  Azerbaijan to Armenia. As a result of the study, as the head of the  CB noted, it turned out that it is only about one transfer of 30,000  euros, which was sent from Azerbaijan to Armenia by an international  organization.

Since 2020 - after the 44-day war in Artsakh, "the new  Armenian-Azerbaijani border" cut the village of Shurnukh in the  Syunik region almost in half. As a result, more than a dozen houses  came to the territory under the control of the Azerbaijani armed  forces, at the same time, the Armenian authorities initiated the  construction of a new district. The ceremony of handing over new  houses in the village of Shurnukh for 13 families took place only on  June 16 this year.

On April 19, following the eighth meeting of the state commissions,  Armenia and Azerbaijan agreed to begin delimitation from the Tavush  region and complete the approval of the draft regulation on the joint  activities of the delimitation commissions by July 1. Since the  evening of the same day, residents of the border villages of Tavush,  dissatisfied with the agreements between Yerevan and Baku, held  protests, which eventually resulted in the "Tavush for the  Motherland" movement. According to the decision of the commissions,  Azerbaijan will receive two houses, a bridge, a section of the road  towards Georgia and about 50 plots of land.
