In Yerevan, rally participants put forward an ultimatum to Nikol Pashinyan

During the rally, oppositionists demanded from Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan to resign by the end of the day.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on November 10, an agreement between Russia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia on the cessation of the hostilities in Nagorno-Karabakh came into force. Today, residents of Yerevan, dissatisfied with the content of the peace agreement, have come to the rally in Yerevan and marched from Freedom Square to the building of the Armenian government. The Cabinet of Ministers must resign and thus the agreement with Azerbaijan will remain unfulfilled, organizers of the rally claim.

In Yerevan, the participants of the protest action put forward an ultimatum to Nikol Pashinyan, Prime Minister of Armenia, to resign of his own accord by the end of today. According to representative of the  Supreme Body of the ARF in Armenia Ishkhan Sagatelyan, if the demand is not met, tomorrow, on November 12, the opposition will decide the issue of "removing Nikol Pashinyan and his political team from power," the "Interfax" reports.
