1lurer.am. President of Nagorno-Karabakh Arayik Harutyunyan has revealed that he has been considering stepping down.
Addressing demonstrators Monday evening in Stepanakert City, Harutyunyan said his potential resignation was discussed during his latest emergency meeting with officials on Monday.
“My possible resignation was also discussed, and a few days before I also wanted to resign. Tomorrow or the day after we will have another meeting in a narrow format, and in the event of a decision being made that I shall resign, I will go and serve in the outposts with the militia as early as this Sunday,” Harutyunyan said.
The demonstrators had gathered after Azerbaijani border guards kidnapped three residents of Nagorno-Karabakh in Lachin Corridor. Protesters gathered in Stepanakert’s Revival Square demanded clarifications from President Harutyunyan regarding the steps to find out the fate of the kidnapped citizens of Nagorno-Karabakh. Harutyunyan approached them and answered the questions.
