‘Handcuffed’ citizens hold rally outside Armenian parliament, demand return of POWs from Azerbaijan

Panorama, Armenia

A group of “handcuffed” people on Tuesday held a rally in front of the Armenian National Assembly building to call attention to the issue of the Armenian prisoners of war (POWs) being held in Azerbaijan.

They demand that Armenia’s relevant state institutions immediately resolve the issue of the repatriation of POWs.

Before handcuffing themselves, the citizens stuck posters to the gates of the parliament building, presenting their demand.

“Either bring back the prisoners of war or stop the negotiations!” the posters read.

Incidentally, Azerbaijan has officially announced that there are no more Armenian prisoners in the country.
