“Protesters Close Major Motorway in Tavush Over Controversial Border Demarcation”

The reporters have closed the Spitak-Gyumri motorway today. Facebook users have published photos from the scene.

Let us remember that on April 19, negotiations between the authorities of Armenia and Azerbaijan on the demarcation of the border started in Tavush province. The description of the sections of the border should be compiled, taking into account the results of the geodesic measurements carried out in the field, which should be completed by May 15, 2024.

The office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia has announced that Azerbaijan is receiving 2.5 villages in this outcome, while the Republic of Armenia is reducing the risk of security threats. Changes are expected in the section of the road within the village of Kirants, while Voskepar will not have any problems. After the demarcation, the remaining forces in four villages in Tavush will be recalculated and their positions will be handed over to the border guards.

The villagers in the border villages of Tavush will hold protests starting from April 19 on the Armenia-Georgia interstate road. They are going to oppose the version of the demarcation that was agreed upon by Yerevan and Baku.
