Armenian police detained hundreds of anti-government protesters who attempted to block traffic in Yerevan as demonstrations continued over controversial territorial concessions made to neighboring Azerbaijan. More than 270 people were detained on May 27, according Armenia's Interior Ministry. Protest leader Archbishop Bagrat Galstanian had called for a "nationwide campaign of disobedience" and the resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian over a deal that returned control of several border villages to Azerbaijan.
