2022 Armenian protests
Protests against the prime minister / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2022 Armenian protests (also known as the Resistance Movement; Armenian: Դիմադրության շարժում, romanized: Dimadrut’yan sharzhum) were a series of anti-government protests in Armenia that started on 5 April 2022.[5] The protests continued into June 2022, and many protesters were detained by police in Yerevan.[6] Protestors demanded Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan resign over his handling of the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war.[7] On 14 June 2022, the opposition announced their decision to terminate daily demonstrations aimed at toppling Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan after failing to achieve popular support.[8]
