TBILISI (Reuters) – Armenian police detained 137 protesters who have been blocking streets in Yerevan as a part of a collection of anti-government protests, Russia’s TASS information company cited the Inside Ministry as saying on Monday.

Protesters calling for Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s resignation have been gathering weekly within the Armenian capital since April.

The demonstrations, that are headed by Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan, started in opposition to Pashinyan’s plan at hand over 4 abandoned villages to longtime rival Azerbaijan.

Although the villages have since been handed over, the protests have grown right into a broader name for Pashinyan, who has presided over a collection of defeats to Azerbaijan, to resign from workplace.
