Local residents do not support this decision – they want Armenia to refuse to hand over any territories, and have turned to international human rights organizations for help.
In the border area, many villages are fighting for the right to remain in Armenia. April 25 students of the border village of Baghanis, protesting against the decision of the country’s authorities, refused to go to classes. Armenians also blocked part of the country’s main highways.
“We are losing our homeland. Every Armenian must understand that our old enemy, who committed genocide against us, can knock on any door at any time,” explained Mariam Simonyan, a local resident.
The woman wants her offspring to know that she objected to this transfer.
“How do we fight? We have nothing. We can fight with words, Miriam fumed, stressing that she plans to stay in the village no matter what. – I’d rather live like this – with our old enemy. And that will be better than living in Ijevan and Yerevan together with our internal enemies. Together with people who did not stand up to defend their homeland. They are bigger enemies than Azerbaijanis.”

New meeting on Hospital MeToo : the Minister of Health Frédéric Valletoux receives Monday May 6 the Orders of doctors and nurses, in particular. Since one month, speech is freedwomen denounce verbal and physical attacks at the hospitaltolerated for decades under the guise of tough and ribald spirit.
Does this so-called “rude” spirit still persist today? Are mentalities changing in hospitals? To find out, franceinfo interviewed two generations of women. Crossing perspectives: one is a 52-year-old doctor, the other a 24-year-old intern.
Now an anesthetist-resuscitator, Hélène realizes with hindsight that sometimes under the cover of humor, her male colleagues of all ages gave her a hard time 30 years ago, when she was a student at the hospital.
“Very concretely, my buttocks, my breasts were touched, like meat. It was a system that happened in full view of everyone.”

“Serious remarks, inappropriate gestures, stolen kisses, even (things) more serious, she adds. It was quite permanent and us girls, our job was to respond in a way that was not too unpleasant so as not to be ostracized too much. It went something like: ‘Thank you really for the attention you pay to my plastic, could you teach me something instead?’ It was a kind of constant negotiation, a gymnastics, so as not to take too many hands and at the same time, not to come across as stuck on duty, because that was the best way to ostracize yourself. It was part of the hospital environment, it was make or break, you had to deal with it.”
“Things are slowly changing”
This doctor also talks about those nights on call where the room door doesn’t close, the great teachers who think they can do anything. “There was one in particular, it was an octopus, it was all slimy, says Hélène. As soon as we passed within a certain area, we were absolutely certain to grab a hand, a caress, and seemingly nothing. This one, you especially had to avoid finding yourself in his office. And it’s only my 52-year-old self who says in retrospect that my butt was still pretty damn hot.”
The on-call mentality, sexual assaults in the hospital, what’s the point of talking about it 30 years later? “It’s important because it has to change, because ultimately we haven’t said anything all these years.” Hélène now welcomes all the medical students and all the interns by telling them: “At the slightest inappropriate comment or gesture, come and talk to me about it, we won’t let it happen”. And today’s girls don’t let this happen anymore, confirms Sophie, 24, an anesthesia-resuscitation intern next to her in Paris.
“Things are slowly changing, since everywhere I have been so far, we have been very aware of this.”

“What is certain is that the group also gives strength. As we arrive as many women, the majority especially in our specialty, we are starting to be more numerous than the men. This allows us to have a greater collective response and to have power together, which is more difficult when you are alone.”
“They still have power”
She still remembers a remark at the table, in the canteen. “I’ll take you on the desk”quotes Sophie from memory. “I didn’t know what to say at that precise moment. It’s not always easy. Afterwards, you think about it and you say to yourself that there were a thousand and one good ways to answer it. Which is when even to point out and which is a little different from before, is that it made no one laugh. There were only men around the table, a slightly awkward silence followed. the rest continued without it ever being spoken of again.”
Mentalities are fortunately changing, believe Hélène and Sophie. “You are right in saying that the new generations of men who are arriving now, at least those whom I see passing as interns, are generally irreproachable, aware of these issues, notes Hélène.
“The problem remains that you are still dealing with people of my generation, who have experienced this behavior as normal, and who have not necessarily seen morals evolve.”

“And they still have power, and often they are at the very top, she adds. It is to them that we also want to address today.” For Hélène and Sophie, this MeToo in the hospital, this freedom of speech, is a good thing, but this must be followed by sanctions against the attackers of yesterday and especially today.

West Virginia Political Updates: Primary Predictions and Governor Race Analysis
The Daily Telegraph reported on Friday, citing an informed source, that former US President Donald Trump has drawn up a detailed plan to end the conflict peacefully in Ukraine, but he will not announce it until after the elections.
The source close to Trump said: “There is a plan, but he will not discuss it on news channels so that it does not lose all its effectiveness.”
He added that Trump will instead focus on the simple message that he is capable of stopping the conflict, in an attempt to win the votes of voters who prefer his peaceful solution.
He continued by saying: “He wants to stop the massacre. This is the propaganda poster, “Trump will stop the massacre,” referring to the posters bearing the political slogans of the candidates that their supporters decorate their cars with.
Trump confirmed earlier during an interview with Time magazine that if he returns to the White House, he will try to help Ukraine, but Europe must also pay its fair share.
The former US President also previously expressed his confidence that he could put an end to the conflict in Ukraine by pressuring the Kiev regime to give up the Crimean Peninsula and Donbass to Russia.
