MAGA Patriots Join Armenian Solidarity Movement


Since martial law has been declared in Armenia and Azerbaijan, protests across the US have erupted to show solidarity and demand support and a peaceful solution for the regional conflict.

Pro-Armenian protests shut down Hollywood this week, waving the national flag of the US and Armenia, to show solidarity and demand media coverage on the issue.

Armenian Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan told Fox News that establishing peace is their current priority, yet the fight between the countries has not stopped since the September 27th.
