Armenians Protest as Prime Minister Signs Peace Deal to End Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict

HeadlineNov 13, 2020

In Armenia, protests erupted Thursday just minutes after Armenia’s prime minister signed a peace deal to end the conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh. Protesters say the deal, which was signed by the president, does not represent the will of the Armenian people. This comes as the group Genocide Watch has issued a warning after identifying several early signs of a potential genocide they considered Azerbaijan was engaging in despite a ceasefire agreement with Armenia. It is estimated the conflict has killed at least 1,000 people and displaced over 100,000, though some say the death toll is much higher.
