As a result of the advance of the Azerbaijanis near Verin Shorzha village of Gegharkunik Province, two Armenian military posts, following the appeal by acting Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, did not fire shots and ended up under blockade. Former Prime Minister of Armenia Hrant Bagratyan on Saturday wrote about this on Facebook.

“The Azerbaijanis do not allow taking food to them, demanding that they leave the posts and flee. Otherwise, they will be taken captive. They are 20 people,” Bagratyan added, in particular.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
