Police in Armenia say they have detained dozens of demonstrators who were trying to block streets in capital Yerevan. The protesters are angry at plans to hand over land to Azerbaijan.

Armenian police said on Monday they had detained dozens of people attempting to block streets in the capital Yerevan as part of protests against government plans to concede land to Azerbaijan.

As demonstrations against unilateral territorial concessions in Armenia gather steam, the U.S. must reconcile with the fact that a just and durable peace is not possible in the absence of accountability.

Thousands of protesters angered by the government’s decision to hand over control of some border villages to Azerbaijan have demonstrated in the center of the Armenian capital for a second day to demand the resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.

Thousands of people protested Friday in Armenia's capital, Yerevan, against the government's decision to cede four territories to Azerbaijan. Armenia agreed to return four villages to Azerbaijan
