CivilnetFor 13 days now, former State Minister of Artsakh, businessman and philanthropist Ruben Vardanyan has been on hunger strike in a Baku prison. To support him and other Armenians held captive in Baku, Mane Tandilyan, co-founder of the "Country to Live" party, along with citizens Vardan Avagyan and Artavazd Alaverdyan, declared their own hunger strike in Yerevan now on its third day. "The meaning of this hunger strike is for Vardanyan to know that we are waiting for him here, we need him healthy. This is our shame that he is forced to go through all this. It means that we have done nothing, especially the government," Mane Tandilyan told CivilNet.
