VOICED : Manifestación armenia en Madrid pide la paz en Nagorno Karabaj

On Tuesday, hundreds protested in Madrid for peace in Nagorno-Karabakh, a region with ongoing conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The Armenian community in Spain accused Turkey of participating in what they call a massacre, exploiting the global focus on COVID-19. Protesters urged international intervention.
