Ruben Vardanyan suspends his hunger strike and makes important statements

He requested that one be published today and the other on Sunday.

Vardanyan also stated that his next statement will only be made at the final court session - and only if representatives of the international community are present.



In the audio message released today, he emphasized that his hunger strike was not merely a protest but an effort to draw attention to the injustice of the trial and the broader situation faced by Armenians:

“I had several goals when I did this, when I declared my hunger strike: to show that there is no trial, but a farce; to show that it is not me who is being judged, but all Armenians and the state itself; and to show the price that had to be paid by all those who, in their hearts, would have been happy to stay and live here (in Artsakh), and not leave.”
