On Monday morning, supporters of the Tavush for the Motherland movement, led by Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan, began actions of civil disobedience in the capital and regions of Armenia, blocking interstate highways, interregional roads and streets in Yerevan. After some time, the police began to detain protesters in the Armenian capital.

The protesters are against the process of delimiting the borders between Armenia and Azerbaijan. On May 9, Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan, who led the procession from Tavush to Yerevan, called on the prime minister to resign.
