Armenians in France call for Nagorno-Karabakh intervention
The Armenian diaspora in France — the largest in western Europe — is urging the country to do more to support Yerevan in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Dozens of women and men hurry along a street towards a square behind France's National Assembly in Paris. They are waving Armenia's red, blue and orange flag, or have it draped over their bodies. Some hold up signs that read "Recognize Karabakh," while many chant Hayastan, or Armenia.
The protesters are gathering on a Tuesday afternoon to demand France support Armenia in the conflict with Azerbaijan over the Nagorno-Karabakh region. After all, France harbors western Europe's biggest Armenian diaspora with up to 600,000 members.
